A flight I'll always remember, taking my 3 year old daughter Ellie for her first flight! I'm incredibly proud of her and how brave she is, no fear, just fascinated with everything she sees. We fly over our house, her nursery, some horses, some cows, a wind turbine, and a crop circle/ball 😆
Sorry for the intercom problems throughout, I think the mic levels were overwhelming the intercom and leading to the audio cutting out for brief but annoying moments. If you have any other ideas, please let me know in the comments.

Yeah it definitely is! I'm one proud dad for sure 😁🙌🙌

That was awesome. I wish I had had the opportunity to take my two daughters up at that age. My wife would not have been able to cope, so respect to your other half. Your daughters a star. Well done.

@RobHolmes8 2 года назад

Thanks Bob, glad you enjoyed 🙌 yes my wife was nervous, and hasn't even been up with me yet either, so definitely full respect to her! 🙌🙌

11:00 Pure joy ! 😂 Children at this age are often totally underrated. She knows very well what is going on, what she likes and what not.

@RobHolmes8 2 года назад

Completely agree, she surprised me by recognising things I never thought she would from the air! 🙌

@JodelFlyer 2 года назад

Great stuff Rob. Your daughter was amazing. Very observant and interested in things as you flew over them. I thought she had gone a bit quiet as you climbed for the clouds and obviously couldn't see the detail which she was enjoying. Couldn't help smiling when she asked you to go down. A very nice record for you both and I am sure it will not be her last flight. Well done. (and subbed while I was here, thank you YT suggestions!) 😊

@RobHolmes8 2 года назад

Thank you for the kind words and subscribing Tim! 🙌 I'm very proud of her, and looking forward to taking her flying again 😁

@briansnell9179 2 года назад

That's really sweet, your little girl will likely be pilot one day. I remember meeting you when you flew into the airfield earlier this year. I was flying with John in his falke glider. Glad to see the centre markers we put down on the runway are working too.

@RobHolmes8 2 года назад

Hey Brian, I remember and didn't you make me a cup of tea too, thank you 🙌 glad you enjoyed the video, she is a little star and it was an amazing flight 🌟

@iangarforth 2 года назад

Wonderful! Have been thinking about taking my 5 years old up, but haven't done so yet - this was just what I needed to see!

@RobHolmes8 2 года назад

Awesome, I'm glad it's given you a boost! Hope your 5 year old loves it 🙌🙌🙌 It's a serious proud dad moment, and memories for life 👍

@andrewnewman6451 2 года назад

Ah Matey...what a little star she is🌟...it seems like yesterday my Molly was that size...gutted I never got to fly her at that age... 😔 I have to say It brought a tear to my eye watching that! lots of respect for your good lady for letting that happen 🙂🙂 I look forward to meeting them both 🙂 Thank you for sharing that 🙂👍

Thanks Andy ❤️ we'll have to get together soon! 👍

Great Video Rob. I look forward to bringing my daughter up next year, when she turns three. She'll be my co-pilot from then on!
