Why you always need to preflight after a kid is in your plane - VIDEO

Hello EAA Family,
Well, after having to take a break from editing for the birth of another future pilot (babies are hard), I’m finally back with another flight vlog. This time it’s a twist on the classic $100 hamburger run - spoiler alert, I eat WAY too many cookies.

Also a few lessons within: You’ll see why I’m thinking about adding a few checklist items to my personal checklist after introducing a kid to aviation. I had checked all of the major systems after my future young eagle played in the cockpit, but I missed a minor one that could have super inconvenient consequences.

EAA is the heart of aviation, and I'm always looking for more ideas - thanks for watching!

I enjoy your sense of humor and watched several of your videos. But a 172? It's like inviting the girls out for a ride in the family minivan. :D

Does it make you feel better to know I did all of my primary training in a J-3?

No, you weren't that bad. I've had people try a lot harder to kill me than you did!! :)

Oh, that center line is simply a guide and a suggestion; I wouldn't worry about it.

Man, I am so glad we have so few towers down here! When one lands with a tail wind it means something unusual is happening.
