My son has been flying since he was 8. He flys safe, well and respectfully to his surroundings. Now 9 I let him fly my inspire and he treats it like he does guns when we go shooting together, Safe, controlled and responsibly. Honestly if a lot of the people out there fly as safe as he does we wouldn't see half of the news reports we see on the news. He has his check list, he checks to make sure the conditions are safe, he knows his surroundings and makes sure he is not near any airports or places where there might be other aircraft etc.
The general consensus of age vs responsibility is a stereotype and nothing more than profiling and in the case of kids under the age of 16 the problem isn't the kids, its their parents. Teach your kids right, hold them accountable for their actions, and be with them thru the learning process and whether its guns or multi rotors or cars, teach them to respect them, understand them and know the hazards and positives to them and you most likely wont have a problem. |
