Perhaps not the only time this sort of thing has happened, Clinton? Many years ago you very kindly took my late sister for her only ever GA flight. A flight that she enjoyed immensely. But returning to YPPF over the Adelaide Hills, Jane enquired as to how long it might be before we landed? Upon taxying in and immediately after shutdown, my sister and I sprinted to the maintenance hangar on the western side of the tower. (I knew where the toilet was there, for her use.) Afterwards we returned to the A36 Bonanza for photos. I see those photos daily as they're in my lounge room at home.
