I suspect the only reason it survives is because fellow pilot Baron
Hilton wants it to.


I suspect that you very well may be correct.



He is not correct.

I rode (and spoke) with one of the investors of the OSH Hilton - in his golf
cart. I was walking back to the N40, from getting ice, and kind of just
walked out in front of his cart while he was tooling around on the service
road - hey, I got the ride. g

This was the guy I was with, on one side of Atlas, while Jay and Mary were
pushing Steve and Jack out of their camping spot, a few planes down, on the
other side of Atlas. Final Saturday.

Me ..."Where's The Allisons this morning?"
Jay ...Pointing to them on the grass taxiway - "Um, there."

Anyway, he was a nice fellow - a little freewheeling, funny too. He said his
investment in The OSH Hilton is doing just fine. He said, contrary to what
people think, it's making $$$. The (very profitable) catering is one thing
that tips the balance.
