Take up a passenger

Make a great first impression

After the Checkride

One of the things we anticipate is taking up our first passenger. Who will it be? A spouse or partner, a parent, a longtime friend? Choose wisely and plan thoroughly. You want your right-seater to have a great time so that he or she will clamor to join you again.
