There is nothing unreal about my statement. Improbable, that's open for
debate.

By the way, I have not seen large numbers of children playing alongside the
runway at ANY airpark I have flown into. That is about as realistic as the
children playing on the interstates in the big cities.

I just read several airpark descriptions, many were relating the fact that
kids were riding their bicycles not only along the strip but across the
strips. Including 3 wheelers, etc.

All of the kids at our airpark (even the little ones) have GREAT respect
for the runway. All of the pilots also know that if any houses are
under construction (almost always) the runway becomes a soccer field
from noon to 1. The players are also very good about keeping away of
planes in the pattern I'm told.

A low pass will clear deer and soccer players.

I hesitate to add to this discussion because I'm not an instructor,
just a rather slow student who's not qualified to give advice that
might kill someone.
