lewmonst 0 #1 April 29, 2004 It was definately one of the best days because we could bring Ed's mom into the sky with us to really see what makes us happy. She did great. She was a little worried her dentures would fall out, but they didn't. She wasn't very nervous at all. She was so happy when she landed. After not being able to really know Ed for a long time, this was the first of many good "memories" to come. Knowing Ed does this for a living, she said she just "didn't want to be afraid" of what her son does. It was very cool. peace lewhttp://www.exitshot.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tonyhays 86 #2 April 29, 2004 Nice pics. My mom has the same fear for me. Maybe someday I'll get her to do a tandem.“That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.” Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peej 0 #4 April 29, 2004 That rocks! It's also one of the reasons i want a tandem rating in the future, my mom has said that the only time she will get in the air is if it's with me! Advertisio Rodriguez / Sky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
