In the early 70's I worked for Western Airlines here in Reno. At that time
there were only two of us working the night shift. An older gent came up to
the counter and I sold him his ticket, he then went to baggage check in
where I took his bag. When he came to the gate to board the flight and saw
me, he said " son if your flying the plane I'm not going."
Once a through passenger asked if I could walk her seeing eye dog.
The Captain heard me explaining to her that I could not leave the gate and
said he would be glad to walk her dog. I guess it was the sight of the
pilot doing his walk around with a seeing eye dog but 4 passengers with
tickets didn't board the flight that night.
Crash
