You're looking at this from the wrong perspective. You don't have to convince your other half that you want to take up flying again, you've already decided to. Given the limited opportunity you have-do it! Here's what you tell your sidekick; let your other half "know" that you're taking up flying again since you've found the opportunity. You might have to sweeten the deal somewhat though. Here's some examples of what I've done in the past. When I bought a plane about three years ago I bought my wife a new washing machine-happiness abounds. When I bought my Junior Ace last year, I got her a new dryer to go with it-peace and serenity. When I drove out west a few months ago to pick up another plane I bought, I brought her along and dropped her off at her moms-she made me pick her back though. See, win-win, well almost. Or, you could roll the dice and "ask" permission. Seems kinda' risky though. By the way, I really did do the washer and dryer deal. I had to pick her back up from her moms-I don't know how to use the washer and dryer. We need a new living room set; I've got my eye on a Pietenpol.Originally Posted by Tessmacher
