Rides given
Hi Bill,
You really should have two questions here, 1) How many people have you given rides to? and, 2) How many "different" people have we given rides?
Well, being honest, of the 63 people I've given rides to, about 6 of them I'd classify as being different
Sorry, couldn't help but to play with the wording!!!

There are still a few in our flying community who haven't flown with me, but I'm working on it!
Anyway, we just got back from our first RV date. My wife had flown with me once before but it was a short local flight. Today, we flew about 85 miles to LZU, near ATL for a $100 hamburger at the airport restaurant. It was her third ever flight in a small plane and she did great.
We stayed above the scattered clouds and listened to the latin music xm station.
Bright sun, puffy clouds, merengue beats, pass the Appleton!!

I've given rides to:
- 8ish potential RV builders (from eaa 20, the norcal list or this website)
- 8ish folks at Burning Man International Airport (3 of these pax were naked )
- 6ish young eagles - The RV only carries one, so the scheduler knows that the 'regular' kids who want to fly in something special should get this plane
- 3 tower controllers from my local airport
- 10 coworkers
- 10 friends
- 4 line people

As of about two years ago, the number was 88 unique people. I haven't added the last two year's worth, but will.
I mark the person's name in my logbook, and I'm sure I missed a few.
Sharing RV's is one of life's great pleasures!

I would classify that as a $100 BURRITO.

Bill,
My wife and I would like to thank you again. She still goes on about "...that's the first RV I've ever been in." She loved it, and that's a good thing for me. She and I both know it won't be the last ride she takes in an RV.

Kevin, this is so disturbing that I feel like I need to have the seats in my plane cleaned.
I just read your post to Sherri and we both had fun with this. Thanks for the laugh and take care,Shameless post hijack
Let me get right to the point. I'd love to be able to add to someone's number here.
A little history, I visited Van's place in the summer of '91 and bought the video. But I've never had the opportunity to go up in one. I told myself I'd not to even accept a ride in one until obtaining a PP certificate. Well that's done.
Everything is finally in place to start construction on one, probably a 7. And while I doubt anyone has ever gone up in one and then decided not to build, I'd still like a ride before I place that order.
I live in Dallas, and do most of my flying out of Hidden Valley.
Thanks,
Paul
