	To all of you out there flying Long Rangers and A-Stars.  I'm wondering
	what your policy is on taking family riders in addition to your
	patient.(Interfacility obviously)  More specifically, if you do allow
	family riders, does anyone make the decision PRIOR to actually seeing the
	patient and/or rider in question?  Also...do you differentiate between a
	peds patient with a parent rider vs. an adult patient with adult rider?
	Obviously, the weight issue can probably eliminate taking a rider prior to
	launching, but I'm thinking that all of the factors involved in this
	decision cannot be addressed PRIOR to the flight crew's arrival at the
	sending facility.  Any input welcome.
	
	Thanks..
