Just had a great day, with several flights and some tinkering. Finally, the weather has cooperated!!!
Anyhow, stopped off at a small, rural airport to pick up my cousin for a ride. A local mentioned that they had good gas prices, so an hour later after the tour flight I decided to fill up before heading home. No joy. The door to the office was locked, with no one around. But wait... Sign on the door says the code to the lock is the first, second, and fourth digit in the standard emergency frequency. That gets me in, to find a lock box with a combo padlock and a note that the code is the standard enroute frequency. Inside I find a log, a key to the pumps, and a bunch of visa slips (the old ones with carbon). I fill up, fill everything out, lock it back up, and I'm on my way.
How cool is that?
