Mary has said with much great directness, exactly what I was thinking, and trying to subtle about. Though I always want to encourage our industry, a new pilot with his family is a six seat plane is extreme high risk. I have mentored a number of new pilots in their big 4 and 6 seat airplanes, and too frequently been reminded that new pilots don't know what they don't know.... and it can be fatal....
I have a wife and four kids, and 36 years of flying. I have never had all of them up flying together, and have no intention too. I have nothing to prove to them. If we need to get somewhere together, we drive (two cars these days, for comfort), or travel by commercial air. In a few parts of the world, flying the family around is the only way - but not for me....
Before you retort, yes, we've been hit four times by other cars while driving - but never hurt, and always with my same daughter with me. She's my beautiful blonde driving jinx....
