I know it is not directly Mooney related but he did ask when he could start transitioning into my airplane about 5 minutes after.

Almost 19 years after his first flight instruction.  I think I was more nervous than he was.

I’m shocked he’s not wearing hearing aids in the second photo after that initial flight   

Very cool to see the aviation bug stick!

It's Mooney related, and congrats

I can tell from the first photo, he knows how to nail the glide slope.

No GPS autopilot assist needed here.

There is a special bond that forms between fathers, sons and airplanes.

Nothing more Mooney related... than Mooney pilots and family...

Thanks for sharing the pics.

I think the Dad gets an award for being able to let go of the reigns...
