My wife has been terrified to fly in small planes for a long time, and it's taken years for her to be able to be comfortable flying in our plane. Still in the back of her mind, she wonders "what if something happened to Eric?!" so we set out to prepare her in case I become incapacitated. We teamed up with Jason Miller of The Finer Points, who designed and taught her a "pinch hitter" course so she can control the airplane, navigate to a runway, and land safely to keep herself and our daughters alive.

The experience was transformative. I hope you enjoy this video.
