I took my dad on his first microlight flip yesterday! At the age of 74, he was a bit nervous at first but I think the smile at the end says it all!!!!!!

Mooi so Gerhard.
Its at times like these that I wish my Dad was still around to be able to go for a flip with me....

Awesome! My dad is 70, seen the aerie but prefers terra firma!

My old man also seems a bit reluctant.

Always great to see the smiles and excited faces afterwards....took up a friend of mine's mother two weeks ago @ Microland, she is 74 and had never flown in any type of aerie before....now that was something special too
Well done Gerhard!

My Mother is 86 and flies with me at every opportunity.

Gyronaut.
That is fantastic. Give her a big hug from a stranger.

And wish her a lovely New Year from me.
