I have had all types aboard but the most enthusiastic ones tend to occur at drop zones. They will pay the fee just to come back down with the plane. I always think it's funny because it's not an amusement park ride but they definitely see it that way. The worst passenger I ever had was a young kid who just wasn't ready to get off the ground. Poor thing started crying profusely about half way through the ride and couldn't stop. As far as rider attitudes, you learn pretty fast not to solicit passengers unless they already want to go and they specifically make a mention of it. I have never taken my mother up for example. I also have never asked a romantic date if she wanted to go for a ride- I already know the answer without having to ask.
