Waxman Staff Writer Jun 19, 2015 3:33 PM UTC A Canadian pilot took his four-year-old daughter on an aerobatic plane ride for the first time and filmed her reaction, which involved a delightfully maniacal laugh. Raphael Langumier, 40, [told the _CBC_ ](http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/aerobatic-plane-ride-a-blast-for-quebec-girl-4-1.3117318)that he took her on the ride in Lachute, outside Montreal, so that she would not be afraid of planes going upside. In the video, little Léa can be seen having so much fun that she tells her father to do it again and again. He told [_The Toronto Star_](http://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2015/06/17/watch-a-daredevil-four-year-old-laugh-like-a-maniac-when-flying-upside-down.html) that his daughter, who has been flying in planes since she was two, wants to be a “stewardess” like her mother. ### See 11 Adorable Babies Swimming Underwater  Zoe, 5 months Seth Casteel  Michael G., 12 months Seth Casteel  Zelda Mae, 7 months Seth Casteel  Emerson, 7 months Seth Casteel  Adeline, 10 months Seth Casteel  Bailey, 14 months Seth Casteel  Colton, 11 months Seth Casteel  Warren M., 11 months Seth Casteel  Khyleigh, 9 months Seth Casteel  Michael R., 4.5 months Seth Casteel  Valentina, 9 months Seth Casteel ## Transcript It's being called the most watched playdate, well, ever. In his first adorable act of public duty, baby Prince George joined his parents and several other families for group play date in New Zealand, Wednesday. Eight month old George, Prince William, and Duchess Kate of Cambridge, that's her holding the infant, met 10 other families at Wellington's government house. The massive playdate was organized by Plunkett. A local organization that provides health care and support for new parents. As NBC reports the ten lucky kids who got to play with the future king were all around the same age and come from a range of households. Including single mothers and gay parents. According the the reporters and photographers present at the event. The little prince looked like he was having a blast with his new friends, and he was certainly one of the best dressed too. He wore a simple white T- shirt under a $ 129 Rachel Riley dungarees with a sailboat on the front. George seemed to love all the toys set out for the group and people noted, one onlooker quipped, he was quite a bruiser while playing with the other kids. And he definitely looked tuckered out by the time the event was over. But the adorable play date was just the beginning of the royal family's engagements in the area. They're currently spending three weeks touring New Zealand and Australia to make several public appearances together. Thanks for watching.
