Wow a private jet ride from Mahnarch.
Sometimes I wish my car could fly.

OH, I H-double A-T-E the O'Hare terminal.
If you get into the terminal veil at a certain time, ATC will completely forget about you!
Don't even bother to ask for 'Flight Following' - you're up there alone.
***
In a C-172 I could probably make Mexico City in 18 hours +/-.
But, crossing the border (Customs, and all) would be an additional 4-5 hours (even though I don't wear a towel on my head).
***
I'll probably be going up, again, next weekend.
I hope I'll get to take a camera with me.
See, right now, it's either:
1) Buy a camera and don't fly.
or
2) Fly and don't buy a camera.
But, then again, I haven't actually priced 'still digital cameras', lately.
Have the prices dropped?

Is there anybody who has a camera you can borrow if you don't have one of your own that works? It would almost be a shame to go flying and not have any pictures to take.

But, don't think I'm going to let you be the navigator, again!
I can only handle so many trips to Disneyland....
You can be the Radio-man.

What are ways to safeguard without being too over paranoid?

I'm with Phil.
If you keep your kids too sheltered it makes them that much more of a target, later in life.
My ex-girlfriend, from back in high school's, mom didn't see her first black person until she was 14 - and she couldn't stop staring at him.
Awkward - as she recounted.
There are things in life - to a point - that children WILL have to face, eventually (even though I am a HUGE believer in the 'Sanctity of Childhood Innocence' - which is why I oppose 'openly gay expressionism' [particularly in San Francisco - Assless Chaps at festivals and what-not...])
