Have a happy fourth Mr. Honeck, I am confused as to why, after railing
against pilots who have become lost and inadvertantly stumbled into the
ADIZ, even declaring them "my enemy" you would choose to portray Mr.
Noonan
and Mrs. Earhart, obvious victims of navigational error.
Hey -- that *is* pretty funny, now that you mention it!
But, of course, the real reason is that Amelia Earhart is still the single
most recognizable woman pilot, and in a Fourth of July parade we need a
symbol that people will understand and associate with our aviation themed
hotel.
And I, as the mere driver of the convertible (Mary gets the place of honor,
seated on the retracted top, waving to the crowd and whacking me on the head
when I accelerate too fast!), had to dress up like SOMEONE. Since I sure
don't look like Charles Lindbergh -- even after losing 25 pounds -- Fred
Noonan was the only logical choice...
