Welcome, Ashley!!
I think it's awesome that you are interested in your Dads (Now Your) Hobby, and I know that he is really excited that you are joining him in this hobby/sport..
Hmm, I just wonder how he is going to feel when you can out-fly him?? Prolly very proud, yet kinda sad at the same time! To quote Darth Vader, "Now the student has become the master!"

if you don't know who Darth Vader is, ask your Dad!!
Again, Welcome!
Craig.
