He looks like a natural in that cockpit!  Number three is a terrific shot as well!

You just gave me a great idea to help with my spotting dry spell...I'll just have a kid and then convince him/her to take flying lessons!!  And of course it would be my duty as a father to be the one to take him/her to the airport for every lesson... be right back gotta go talk to the wife about this.... ;D
