I had a couple other friends with similar "hobbies." Maybe it was all the family farms back in the day but it seemed like the normal thing. We were not rich by any stretch. My folks were private pilots so I had a bonus with the half-mile grass air/drag strip.
There was a beautifully maintained grass strip at my high school. Weather permitting, my mom used to fly us to school when we missed the bus.
