He still think
going to the hanger to work on the Aztec is "boring" but as he gets older
and able to do more, I hope that changes. For now, I'm not pushing him.

IMHO, the key of getting him interested in working on stuff, is look at
what he is doing that he really likes, then see if something related to it,
or on it, can't be "improved" or "fixed." For example, if he likes riding
bikes, get him a generator, or speedometer, or siren, or ....., and then let
him install it, with your guidance, but not your muscles.

Once he starts using the tools, if he has the aptitude, he will want to
start fixing "everything."
