This adds further to the enjoyment
of the flight and injects a touch of
their normal world. Keeping their
sugar levels up will help if they are
a bit nervous. Chocolate is not the
greatest idea: most GA cockpits
can get a bit warm and the last
thing you want is Rocky Road all
over the Garmin 1000. Water,
and lots of it, is a must.
- Recreational
aircraft
By all means use a recreational
aircraft if you think the
passenger is up for it. However,
recreational aircraft tend to
move around the sky more,
so if there’s any indication
that it could be a problem
for them, maybe it’s time for
a rethink. Granted, that is a
generalisation, and there are
some rec aircraft out there
that will do a great job for
first f lights. If the pilot has a Pilot
Certificate only, the choice is
made for them.
