Trying to get Sue to get a pilots license. As a copilot one of her jobs was
to be sure I got the gear down. A great navigator...It takes ALOT to make
her loose her cool.  She would make a good copilot for Ed. (Just kidding Ed)
She has also been in a couple of "interesting " landings.

Jim - you're lucky.  On a recent flight I was told that they weren't
receiving my transponder.  My wife reached down, pulled up the antennae
wire
and innocently asked, "is this supposed to be connected to anything?".  In
all fairness though, she didn't freak when we lost all our electrical
power
as the battery hit 8 volts (yes, having one archaic mag can make sense!).
"oh, look honey, there's an airport" (RNO! good thing I had maintained
lots
of altitude).  So, don't teach her too much, she'll never fly with you :-)

responsibilities.
