I want wings


We took a trip to the local airshow and it has started something. Logan has been fascinated with helicopters for a while already. So the Coast Guard rescue display was a hit. But it was the DC-3 that really got his attention. Once he spotted it, we were on a mission. He led the way, told me what he wanted and got us there. As you can see, his time in the cockpit was pure joy. Ever since that day he has wanted to fly. With or without a plane.

Unfortunately his cape does not empower him with flight, but we've managed to deal with that. We think we've also convinced him that he will NEVER be able to grow wings on his back. The tougher challenge is ahead. He now wants an airplane. I took him to the RC airplane swap meet, but that's where I discovered our big mistake. He wants a REAL airplane. A big one. To get into. That flys.

I'm praying that this phase passes before we have a huge meltdown when there's not a Cessna or 737 under the Christmas tree!
