The JOY of FLYING

A kid I knew when living in South Carolina is now an adult with four young kids, three of whom just love to fly, but his 6 year-old daughter, Lainey, was not so sure about flying. So her dad, Bobby Woodson, thought it might be a good time to introduce her to the sheer joy of flight by taking her aloft in his 1946 Aeronca Champ 7AC out of a grass strip in York, SC.

For those of you who love the smile of a young child or the joy of flight, I think you’ll enjoy this video Bobby shot with his incredible GoPro video camera last October.

I've watched it over and over and stlll get tears in my eyes from watching Lainey's joy and remembering my first flight.....many, many years ago.

That looks more fun than my "bus ride" on Southwest this week. Thanks for sharing.
