The super-strict father wrote on Weibo, China's equivalent of Twitter: 'His first flight was very successful and he wasn't scared at all.'
He senior, from Nanjing in eastern China, is famous in his home country for the daily training regime he puts his son through.
.
Mr Liesheng also trains his son to enable him to compete against much older children in sailing competitions.
He said at the time: 'Only by placing him in a situation with strong winds and waves can he show his potential.'
Last year, He and his two children had to be rescued from Mount Fuji in Japan after the father ignored weather warnings.
The pushy parent had brought only a chocolate bar and a cup of water for rations, thinking there would be shops en route.
He
admitted that he was as terrified as his children on some stretches of
the climb, when the trio were forced to scale 70-degree slopes.The militant father had not brought waterproof clothing, so a sudden downpour soaked them to the skin, and most shelters on the mountain were boarded up.
As temperatures dipped to almost zero and the air became thinner, his children began crying and Duoduo, was nearly collapsing with altitude sickness.
Park rangers eventually had to be called and they gave the family warm clothes and medical treatment.
