Default Flight Training at 15?

Interesting that you seem more concerned about your precious plane than
about your kids.

Suggestion: let him see how he does with a driver's license first. If he
handles that responsibility well, then escalate.


In e.g. Germany, kids can start to fly gliders at 14, while they must
wait until 18 to drive a car. I hear that the clubs make very good
experiences letting 14 year old kids solo in pretty precious ASK21 gliders.
