Thanks for the morning chuckle.
A friend with a share in a Chief (and access to a 152 and a 172) offered me a "jolly" when he was going...we shared the vehicle to the Airfield When we topped the tank after our fun, I'd sometimes grab the fuel chit, take it in and pay it.....we both knew the letter of the law, he would argue,but was presented with a fait accompli,-but what's the difference ,when he paid the meals and drinks afterwards (or not, as the case may be)

I appreciated the experience and gained a close understanding of light aircraft control. he enjoyed the company and reduced cost-so we could both fly more often. a win-win situation. Ahd, as [B][Halfbaked /B] observed,- cash leaves no paper-trail
