Leesburg Airport

—  Steve      

I only met Scott once, but it left a vivid, lasting impression on me. Back in 1992 I worked the Ops Desk at Leesburg Airport, Virginia, and one Saturday morning Scott taxied his venerable Cessna 210 onto the ramp for a fuel top-off. He came inside to pay and we chatted briefly. He was absolutely one of the kindest, most down-to-earth gentlemen I've ever met. He took the time to talk with some kid at a small airport Ops desk and never mentioned once any of his huge accomplishments, of which I knew precious little at the time. Of course now I've read about him extensively, and it only makes his down-to-earth and attentive nature in the brief meeting all the more impressive.
