1/2 hour late and they chew you out? LOL. Back in the late 60's when I was a
student at Zahn's (Amityville, NY), I would spend over 1 hour on a Sunday,
waiting for my 11AM "appointment" to show up. And you couldn't reserve a
particluar Cherokee 140, or J-3. You took what you got . : (



Yea, but when you're a CFI who drove down to the airport to fly with
your student and you end up sitting around for 1/2 hour waiting for
the airplane, you develop little sympathy for those who return planes
late.
