70+ year old lady, very nervous, got pushed into the club by her family for a trial lesson for a birthday or something. Never been in (or near) an aircraft in her life. Took a long time to brief and calm down enough to go fly.

Once airborne, at about 300', I look to my left to see how she is doing. I see a tear running down her face. I ask if she is okay. She responds: 'this is so beautiful'.

We stayed up a bit longer than the 20 minutes I was supposed to do.
