Final Approach
We flew the Skyhawk to Grove, OK so Tom could get his flight physical. We had reserved the courtesy car to drive to town to the doctor’s office, a 4-mile ride.
About a mile from his office, we ran out of gas.
We slowly pulled over to an asphalt plant and wandered into their office. All five people there went to their gas tank, filled up a can and gassed the old beat up car. What nice people!
We actually made the appointment on time.
Running out of gas was a first for us with old beat up airport cars. Many other things have happened: windows and doors not working, mirrors dangling, flat tires, bad brakes, and once in Wyoming a door fell off.
