Our son was returning from a trip recently in the Falcon, San Diego to home base, flying into a snowstorm on the east coast and getting back late at night. I sent him a IM saying drive carefully on the way home. His reply to me was, You don't say anything about landing a 35 million dollar jet in snow though.... I felt sort of bad but told him I know he is good at his job, it's the other idiots on the road I worry about. Parents worry no matter how old their kids are, it's just natural.

He spends a week every six months at Flight Safety for both aircraft that he flies and they throw every possible scenario at them. I'm damn glad they do. As I said, I don't worry about him in the aircraft.
