We have been so spoiled with our homeschool field trips here! First it was getting to cly the Apache simulator, and in the last month we were able to fly the Chinook simulator and play around on a Blackhawk! Needless to say, Tristan is in hog heaven.
While waiting for turns in the Chinook simulator, the kids all played different games.
And even made a new friend.

The pilot giving lessons said Tristan was his best pilot that day.
I didn't get a chance to do the Apache simulator, so I tried this one. Even though the motion was turned off, it still felt like you were really moving.
I called David to come over if he was able to, and he b-lined it out of the office. This guy loves Chinooks!
Then this week's field trip was to go play on a Blackhawk. I'll be honest, I was a little disappointed that we didn't get to do the simulator for this one too - but the kids had a ball pretending to be soldiers on it!
Out little group.
We have had such a great experience with our first homeschool cooperative group. We are very much looking forward to our next group and all the new experiences awaiting us in the Virginia/DC area!
