My father was a pilot at a commercial airline we well know today and on a "take your child to work day" I went flying with my dad on a 180 passenger plane! He taught me a couple of things and let me sit in the captain's seat and fly which instilled a passion which drew me to get my own private flying license when I was 16. I think that if the father was in full control of the situation and traffic was slow then why not! With the current ATC crisis(which I know well given my husband is an air traffic controller) we need to inspire young generations to love the ATC job if not we need to start inventing robots that will do the job when all the controllers retire!
I flew a plane at age 6!!
