Ooh fun!

Details are foggy because I was all of six years old, but it was in July 1980 on an RC flight from Denver (RIP Stapleton) to MSP to see my grandparents. First time on a plane, and as an unaccompanied minor at that.

I remember the kids meal I got was served on a flying disc (i.e. Frisbee(tm)) with the RC logo. I so wish I had kept that!

Not on that set of flights, but a few years later, I was making the same trip on RC. This enormous, muscular, gruff-looking man was seated next to me. I was absolutely terrified - still young - but he couldn't have been nicer to me. It turns out the flight was full of WWF guys. I have no idea who was sitting next to me, though.
