When training many years ago in a humble PA28 (just the two of us) we had a minor engine burp on take off. The instructor, being older and wiser than I,
diagnosed o possible engine failure, and we ran away bravely back to the airfield. As we rolled out on final there were at least three fire engines, an ambulance,
and several other bums and stiffs waiting on the side lines to see us in. I thought this a bit OTT for just two of us, until the instructor mentioned that this was SOP at the
airport for any emergency.
Thinking about it some 20 years later, I get a nice rosy glow thinking that all those people were ready to come and help me should I have needed it.
