Rafael Cortes sent in this photo, which he titled: “That proud moment when your daughter has the controls of the airplane.”
He explains: “My daughter was 11 years old on this flight a few months ago. I was about the same age when my elder brother allowed me to take the controls of the Cessna 172 he used to fly, so I know exactly what my daughter felt when she took that stick, when she turned the airplane for the first time, when she climbed and descended at her will — a moment we will both cherish and remember forever.”
The airplane is a Rans S12, and the flight is over El Conquistador Resort in Fajardo, Puerto Rico, he added.
