"Anyway, when we walked back up to the cow-strip, a young NY State Trooper was inspecting the Allegro. Apparently, a trucker on the interstate thought I had crash landing or done an emergency landing and called the constables. After giving him IDs (he needed them for his report) and assuring him all was well I took off and headed home."
This reminds me of an "adventure" I had. A friend in his Rans and I in my Mark III had just landed at my home base, a small grass field in Concord, NC. We stopped for a few minutes and I took off again to do some landings and takeoff. I was on downwind and looked down at the strip and saw several police cars and fire trucks.
When I landed I found out some woman who lives across from the airport reported a plane crash. We both took off and looked around and there was no crash. She must have seen my Kolb with short landing capability and thought I had crashed.
All was well!
