I was given a lovely saying today ! Life is not about how many breaths you take it's about how many breaths it takes away!
It's your life are you going to avoid everything you consider holds any risk ? If so your kids will think what a dull boring dad they have.
Mountain walking carries a higher risk but I bet you would not think twice about that or mountain bike riding!
Your kids will look to you and learn from you. My ex was petrified of birds to the extent that we had to avoid city squares with pigeons there!
Why? Because her aunt was also petrified of birds and told her as a child to come away.
Stop being a wet ! Your not doing your kids any favours with that attitude but more than that your not doing yourself any favours at all .
Yes learn to be the best pilot you can and fly safe but please do not take that attitude or your letting your kids down and will turn them into adult nimbies!
