RE: Women fliers
Different cultures, different opinions.
My wife is interested in a try at the buddy box but that is about it. She's happy for me when I build and go flying since it's my main hobby and I enjoy it.
I have a five month old son I hope to get hooked one day. If our second child is a girl, I'll see if she's interested as well! Done right, I think building and flying is an excellent educational opportunity for kids.
