Congrats! Despite all the recommendations against taking passengers in the beginning, I actually had to take my elder daughter for half an hour on my first licensed flight. Took great care of the emergency procedures, weather (winds calm, early morning), the scenic route, soft landing etc. The post-flight honest comments from her were as follows:
- she felt safe and she thought I was a pretty good pilot
- the airplane was way too slow (she compared it with airliners)
- the flight was boring
- had trouble to understand what was so complicated about learning to fly.
What could I say? I agreed with her!
