Have You Given a Stranger a Ride?
Not yet as the opportunity hasn't presented itself at an opportune time.
Once, a young guy who works at the local maintenance shop was cruising
through the hangars and stopped to chat. He's a student and asked lots
of questions about our plane and whether we could go flying sometime.
I'd consider it if I'd known him better or had a chance to check with
the maintenance shop to verify that the guy was legitimate.
The closest to seeing "folks at the fence" was when I was down at my
brother's home airport. There's a fence close to the runup area and I
remember taxiing up and there was a boy and his Dad there watching. I
waved, they waved back...and that was about it.
