Yup, we saw a freshly-minted PPL porpoise a 172 down the runway....and eventually off of it into the grass and in so doing, taking out two runway lights in the process.

The good thing is, all walked away unscathed. Sad thing is, he had his very first pax on board. They were cool, but they haven't been back up with him either.
