Hi folks,
I've been reading messages from April (don't ask), so forgive me bringing
up stale topics -- but it's not like the list is hoppin' right now anyway.

When you say "passengers," what exactly do you mean? Anybody besides
yourself? Anybody besides the builders, family members, etc.? Friends?
Anbody who's not paying? Anybody who won't sue if something goes wrong? I'm
guessing it's a just a "liability" sort of thing, so if it's not a
commercial operation, that is if the owner has an agreement with anybody
who comes along that they accept the risks -- well, then it's just between
them... Right?
