well their child would be the emperor of the empire. i don't think he would have much time to fly on fighters. but he would propably be very good.

in sw, emperors are not young when they come to power.
look at palpatine, thrawn etc. they are all old when in power. an emperor would have a youth. who says he didn't pilot then?

he propably would pilot in youth. and if his parents are jag and jaina they propably insist that he does.

Wait...when did it ever say Thrawn became Emperor?
I dont think piloting skills are genetic.......sure Anakin and Luke are blatant contradictions on that point, but seriously, I have never heard of skills being genetic. Cool idea however I must admit.

a lot of the skill of luke and anakin was the force.
and looking at the evidence.
han was a good pilot.
his daughter jaina, a great pilot.
jacen, a decent pilot. (well, he piloted a stealthx at least.) 
soontir fel had jagged fel, a great pilot, and chak fel, a competent pilot.

knowing that han was a swwop racing pro, i can bet he was a good pilot of fighters.
is he ever seen piloting a fighter?
He is quite a good pilot, but somewhere he admits that Soontir Fel is better with starfighter sized ships.

This applies unless Star Wars actually introduces the point of skills being genetic.

can't spot where. and I don't think that flying skill is genetic but if parents are both excellent pilots I think that the kid(s) are propably being educated well in that area.

piloting is not genetic, however the skills needed to excel in piloting are, such as reflexes and such

children are most likely to be told tricks by their pilot parents as well.
