My first flight
This little airport opened about 1968. They had free airplane rides. I went up with my Mom and a guy I later went to Navy boot camp with. The pilot, Mr. Charles Jones had a Cessna 172, the best I can remember. We flew over my hometown. I was kind of scared of flying, or the idea of flying, then. Got to start somewhere!
