It's one of those subdivisions with the houses and hangars facing a
private strip, props, no jets.


In other words, the fire station is there to serve the community.



No need for foam trucks in downtown,


Did they have foam trucks?



maybe an engine would respond to a museum call, thats about it.


In other words, they did not serve only Meigs.



Other stations serve the rest of downtown, and I doubt
airport regulations permit the trucks to leave.


You just said they could respond to a museum call. That would require them
to leave Meigs.



And if there was a wreck and the trucks were away, many of YOU would
complain.


Not so. Firefighters need to leave the station to respond to calls, pilots
understand that.



Then join the common folk at MDW or ORD. Those SWA lineups aren't too bad.


That will require more time and expense. Perhaps I'll simply cease doing
business in Chicago. Are they charging enough for the concert tickets to
compensate for the lost revenue?

By the way, what makes the pilots who use MDW or ORD common folk and those
that used CGX jet-setters?
