To the OP, learn to fly from the right seat. My wife sits left seat whether she is flying or not...problem solved

Default Her Serene Highness

No fear, but no desire to fly the plane. (Don't tell her I posted this or my head might be severed.)

Default My wife...

would wig-out to wake up and find us inverted.

And I have _exactly_ the same stop-drilled crack in my canopy!

Now...

Take care here !

My wife does not like flying in little airplanes, however, one day last summer, I had to take some skydive stuff down country and she said yes !

So..

We set off.

This was the video

Bless -

Now, if you search the other videos on my channel, you will find out what she really said

She is a bit of a potty mouth at times

Still love her though

Mike,
If I rolled my wife, she would never touch the plane again. And I'd probably have to steam-clean the cockpit... count yer blessings!

Default Fearless flyers

My biggest problem is passenger (wife) "get there-itis". Ceiling can be 200' with convection and she just wants to file IFR and go. I'm the big chicken. She took up distance running at age 57. Out of town races are a great excuse to fly. John

Default We have the other form of get-there-itis

Takes her about 10 minutes at cruise on a beautiful VFR day and a 300 mile leg: "Are we almost there? Cuz I'm getting claustrophobic."

Hopefully the 10's going to change that.
