We all decide to take the risk of GA, most of us SEP in uncontrolled airspace (which is sometimes compared in level of risk to motorcycling) but should we decide for someone else who is too young to decide? I haven't made up my mind either way yet but wondered if anyone else had thought about it.
I have no problem doing this with my children - albeit they are a bit older. As parents we ARE supposed to be the ones deciding for them! Certainly wouldn't want anyone from "government" or even worse Brussels
doing this for me!
I personally don't think the risk is enormous. Very few people actually die in aeroplane crashes. With my previous track record it'll probably be a slow crash at the end of the runway.
