Sounds like you're ready to me. Keep practicing that NO.

Heh. I'm the father of two teenagers. Practically my entire
vocabulary consists of the word "NO"...

Guess two out of three ain't bad when using "NO" in a sentence huh?
(Notice he doesn't say "Married, father of two teenagers...")

Hey Jay,
Are you ready for the inevitable question: Hey Dad, can I borrow the
plane tonight? I've got a hot date.

Jay Honeck wrote:

Some explain this to me.
If you have a "family" airplane, does each pilot in the family get added
to the policy as a named insured as though it were a partnership /
multiple owner aircraft?

As was explained to me by a psycologist, "Universities are basically
sheltered workshops for people with Asperger's Disorder."

Why would you expect them to have social skills?

Hi Jay and congratulations to Joseph John Honeck. When I soloed, I
went to imagestation.com and made a coffee cup with the details of the
solo, N number, plane type, and location on one side and a picture of
me and my instructor in front of the plane on the other side. It is
easier to brag about your accomplishments if all you have to do is
have a cup of some beverage with that special cup.


Just thought you might want to prolong the feeling ...

I've got three teenagers and an 8 year old. I know what you mean...

Jay,

Congrats to Joe!

Time to get Becca in a glider, so she can solo on her 14th birthday...
just to show her brother up! :-)

BTW, don't you have another pilot waiting in the wings? VVBG

Yep, our daughter, Rebecca, is 13 now. She runs hot and cold on
flying, but has shown some recent interest, especially with all the
attention Joe has garnered!

Funny how that works...

;-)

Just think, The Flying Honecks. Has a nice sound, doesn't it?

Yeah, as long as we don't end the way the "Flying Wallendas" did...

What's the minimum age in the U.S. to solo a powered
aircraft? I looked though FAR 61 but can't see it. Here in Canada it's
14 years. Kind of dumb, when you realize that a kid can't drive a car
solo until he has his license at 16.
Gotta be 17 in Canada to hold the PPL.

Joe could've soloed last year, when he was 16.

Same here. That's why we didn't want him to start flight lessons
until he was nearly 17...

In the US you must be 16 to solo a powered aircraft and 14 to solo a
glider. To the a private certificate you must be 17.

Or 16 for a Private glider license!

My daughter took me for one of my first glider rides shortly after her 16th
birthday, when the ink was literally still wet on her ticket. This was
particularly memorable because: 1) I was then a total non-pilot, and 2) As her
parent, I had first-hand knowledge that this sweet little girl was far from
infallible.
