I think that's great. Newt is so high strung, I'm not sure he wouldn't fly off of me if he was frightened. I started harness training, but he wasn't having it at that time.. I need to start over again

Maybe you could practice "scary sounds" in the house like sirens, dogs barking etc, planes flying over etc so he could get used to those sounds and he wouldn't get spooked outside. Do you think that would work?

If you do, let me know I may try it with my boys. Elliot isn't too phased by anything but I don't have to worry about him flying away since he physically can't (my special-abled baby), but Newt. yes, he can fly even clipped.
