As we slip through the sky free of any of those nasty surly bonds, I marvel as I look down to see that each little 'berg along our route has a long sliver of tarmac or concrete at the edge of town with tiny specks of white dotting a large ramp area. The "tiny specks" are someone's Cessna, or Piper, or Cirrus, and they are parked in front of possibly a small shack serving as the bathroom/flight school/airplane gas stations we commonly refer to as FBOs.
