One of the joys of general aviation is the opportunity to meet people you might not encounter outside of the airport. Indeed, when a private jet arrives on the ramp, you never know who will descend the airstair and stroll into the FBO.

Celebrities, notable business executives, and star athletes are among the possibilities. For pilots who are also basketball devotees, the chances of spotting members of the Philadelphia 76ers organization just improved.
