Ready for take-off

What's the coolest thing about having grandpas that fly airplanes for a living?

Being the kids in the cool Captain's hats that get private tours of private jets when Granddaddy flies someone important to an airport near you.

Caleb loved running up and down the aisle during his time on the Cessna citation, and Abby couldn't have been more delighted when Granddaddy turned the plane on and she got to see the instrument panel light up and move the flaps. Both kids had a blast wandering around the tarmac and touching the airplanes.

Abby was none too pleased when our tour ended. "I want to fly!" she wailed as we dragged her out of the cockpit.

Some kids play house, or war, or hide and seek.

Mine go home and play airplanes.
