Airplane Ride


Last month we took Eric up in my Dad's airplane for the first time. It was a pretty funny experience. Because the plane has a propeller on the front, it took some convincing before he accepted that it wasn't a "harold-ocopter" (helicopter). The plane is the type used for students, so it has 2 steeiring wheels. Eric rode up front and got to wear his own head set that he could hear my dad talking to the control tower in, so he thought it was really cool. At one time he referred to it as a "Crew Chief" (from CARS). Once we got into the air he though it was pretty cool until things got bumpy. Then he said "Put this plane on the ground RIGHT NOW", so we turned around and went home. After we landed he told me that the clouds were pushing the plane around, and I guess that scared him a little too much. We did have fun, though.
