Until today, all of my passengers were people. But today was a long overdue flight… I loaded up my first four legged passenger (Tristan) in preparation for takeoff.
The route was rather simple (Ft Lauderdale to Tampa). However, there were a bunch of clouds surrounding Ft Lauderdale around departure time.
I filed a quick IFR flight plan with the full intention of canceling it as soon as I was above the clouds.
I was a little nervous about how Tristan would react to the noise of the engine powering up on takeoff. But he did totally fine. In fact, shortly after takeoff, he and his little purple bunny were fascinated by the clouds:
Tristan was a very helpful co-pilot and even pointed out a very photo worthy cloud formation that looked like a heart.

After all the excitement of the flight, both Tristan and his purple bunny were exhausted and fell right asleep!
