It's funny, sometimes I feel like a heli-evangelist Trying to convert as many as possible. . . young or old.
Or should we say, heli-proselyte?

Just about time you started. Few more years and she'd rebel to anything.
I do agree that exposing youngsters to flying has some benefits. It doens't mean they'd consider pro career, but as we know, spare time PPL+hours can become CPL though not originally planned. Reminds me of Hana Zejdova, daughter of one Czech glider record breaker. She set bunch of records in high perf gliders in Australia, both world female and Czech records. She was also girl when she started.

Wish I had the environment and financial backing when young. Can only be tad (OK, big time) jealous. Keep up the good work of 'converting'. Always nice to have more female pilots around.
