RMK 3 #1 October 26, 2009 I’d been planning to do some tunnel flying for some time but never got around to it. On this first trip, my three-year old son did 6 minutes and I did 4, so he actually has more tunnel time than me.

RMK 3 #5 January 9, 2010 Took the little one for another session, but this time at BodyFlight Bedford. Video: http://www.vimeo.com/8622163 Info for anyone else taking small children, the AirKix, Milton Keynes tunnel has the lowest possible airspeed and at low power settings a small child will descend. However, the BodyFlight Bedford tunnel is larger, cleaner airflow, but even on lowest settings, small children will ascend without a weight belt. We did initially try a weight belt (edited out of vid), but it was far too loose on him. Instructors were great at both tunnels. He loves it and begs to go back for more flying in the “special tunnel”. Will look into having a small weight belt made for him"Pain is the best instructor, but no one wants to attend his classes" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hookitt 0 #6 January 11, 2010 That is awesome. Put him in in a skin tight flight suit and he'll have an easier time of it :)My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
