I never close the canopy with a Young Eagle. If nothing else, it's almost
impossible to get airsick with the wind in your face.

Yes, I find about 1/10 of the kids 'go for the yoke' about the time we
lift 
off, even
though they've been told otherwise. I've only had one get a death grip on
the
thing and pull BACK just after take off. Fortunately, she was small enough
that
she was easily disengaged.
