It is a rare person, indeed, who refuses the chance to "steer" -- but
it happened Friday with a 24 year old girl in the right seat.

My wife was a pilot for a number of years before I took up lessons. Not
once before taking lessons did I touch the controls. I just had no
interest. Motorcycles were my thing, flying was hers. My first lesson
this past Spring was the first time I'd touched the yoke. I did it
as a safety thing since we'd been doing regular $100 hamburgers and
flights to her parents with the kids aboard and because I thought flying
would be a nice thing for my wife and I to share.

That first lesson was an eye opener - a plane is like a 3D motorcycle.
Now I'm hooked. I'll be tooling around central Indiana in a J-3 Cub
an hour and a half from now.
