I have three daughters and all three love to fly with me. My youngest daughter, Liberty is now 6 and she has been flying with me since the age of 4. Had extra shoulder straps made as the lap seat belt was not enough. She used to fall asleep in the back seat when we had a long day of flying. My twins are now 13 and have been flying since the age of 10 vhpy

Beautiful photo's; beautiful children.... I have two girls neither of which has flown with me per se... as I don't have my own Plane, but they've flown with Fanie and Mervyn and loved it. My eldest daughter who is 24 wants to do her licence now. She was actually in a run-away plane that morning at Microland when Johan got hurt and she pulled back the bar from the back seat and she just hung on while everyone chased the plane and tried to stop it... she didn't fly for awhile, but after Mervyn and Hans, and Fanie chatted to her and then Mervyn took her up for a flight again, she healed quickly. vhpy
