My first flights were in a crop duster. My father (ACE WWII pilot)
was a flight instructor for army aviation but his friends flew crop
dusters and he arranged for me to go along when I was about 10. We
did loops and dives and spirals and I was fine but my mother, down on
the ground, nearly had a heart attack and wouldn't let me go again. :-(
