Cole had the amazing opportunity to participate in an event sponsored by Challenge Air, a non-profit organization that takes children with special needs for airplane rides. The event travels the country throughout the year, supported by individual pilots who lend their time, planes, and gasoline to take the kids for 1/2 hour rides around their community. It's really cool! The planes are neat...mostly four seater cesnas and hoppers (go me, getting the lingo down!)...There was a stunt pilot there who was just finishing a run when we arrived. I think he did stunts throughout the day but we were the first group to fly so we missed any further stunt flights. They also raffled off helicopter flights throughout the day. Dan went up with Cole and while they both seemed a little nervous at first, the smiles from both after were priceless! Cole's are bigger even now, having had some time to really digest what he experienced. It was a great morning!
