Has my little guy have a flying surprise coming up

Postby RV Sometime » Fri Nov 28, 2008 10:06 am

My 12 year old son's favorite aircraft is a B200, which he flies extremely well on flight sim, but he does not know it yet that he is going to poll the real deal this afternoon in Goga's B200. I cannot wait to see the look on his face this afternoon & will take many pics of this incredible occasion & post them here. Life can be incredibly good sometimes.

That's what it is all about ... making those eyes light up and the grin extending from ear to ear.

My 12 year old had a similar experience in a Zlin 526F doing the full aerobatic experience too - he was stoked!

Well done RV (^^)

Hey Sox, do you own the 526, I knew the aerie well cos I was in the same hangar & chatted at length to the ame who was working on her at the time a few years back, lovely aerie. LON if my memory serves me correctly.
