In all of this, what really sucks *%# is the poor CFI at the FBO who
has to turn away the guy who shows up asking to take pictures of his
property. Today CFI's often get hours by taking people up for local
revenue rides (not just instruction).

I would think the CFI would say, " I can take you up for an introduction
instructional flight, but I can't take you up just to take pictures."
