The friend found not one, but two keys that would work.


Pretty common. There are only 5 or 6 different types of keys. I
carry three different airplane keys and can get into quite a number of
airplanes. While trying to assist a transient pilot that was locked
out of his plane, I found that none of my three airplane keys would
work. Just for fun, I tried the key to my office file cabinet. It
worked perfectly.

When I worked at an avionics shop, we kept a small box of misc. keys around
for when owners would drop the plane off after closing and forget to
leave the key.

It usually took no more than 2 or 3 tries to find a key that worked.
