Or a big propeller.

Now that our conversion to an aviation theme-suites hotel is almost
complete, we think it's time to make the *outside* of the place look more
aviation-ish. (We've only changed the inside, thus far.)

Anyone know where I can find an old Cessna 140 (for example) fuselage for
cheap that I could mount on a pole out front? Or a big ol' Convair prop?
Something I could hoist up onto a 3-story sign, to catch the eye of
travelers?

Anyone got any better ideas? Whatever we do, it can't be unsafe, and it
shouldn't look too kitschy...

Thanks!

somewhere out in the texas desert is an eaa chapter with a smartly
painted BD5 on a pole. it looks as slick as anything I've ever seen on
a pole.

the other suggestion is to locate a disgraced Mini 500 Helicopter and
put it on a pole.

something small, smartly painted and interesting. definitely
uncrashed!!!!
the general public are still turned on by both of the aforementioned
designs.
