If nobody's taken it, put me down for the "Unlimited Suite"

How 'bout the Chuck Yeager Suite? He's pretty popular even for
non-flying types. Or the Sikorski Suite or the Schweitzer Suite to mix in a helicopter theme? Or the TRACON Suite to honor those that help make sure that we all get where we want to go when we can't even see. If you put in leather furniture, red carpeting, and line the walls with aluminum you could call it the "Bonanza Suite", even though it's not more spaciuos than your average room... For a moderately sized room supported by a much bigger foundation, you could go for the "Zeppelin Suite" (might have an alternate appeal to 70's music fans, too). You could paint the room completely black with silver highlights and call it "The Black Box". For those who are specifically NOT aviation-friendly (perhaps they are prone to getting airsick) you could name it "The Dramamine Room". Unfortunately, then you'd have to paint it pea-soup green. But the obvious side benefit is that if you later changed your theme structure to model Hollywood Movie Classics, this would require very little adjustment to be the "Excorcist" Suite. Perhaps some weather phenomena deserve honorable mention - The Cirrus Suite (double meaning for the plane - paint the room white glossy, and put in all white plastic furniture), The Towering Cumulus Suite, or just, "Cumulonimbus" (it's not a Suite. It's a monster!) Might be a problem to clean, though, since customers might think it's OK to leave it looking like a tornado hit it... Anyway, that's it for me and ideas... Happy New Year!

Sorry. The Mustang name has already been taken for a ...ahem... series of
hotel "suites" east of Reno. (Well, they sure looked "suite" to me!!!) Jim "John Huthmaker" wrote in message ink.net... How about "The Proud Mustang Suite" |

Reno Air Racing Suite? (im sure LOTS of memorabilia there..)
We've already got a "Reno Air Racing Suite"! (It's our smoking-allowed honeymoon suite, and it's chock full of stuff that RARA gave us when we attended the race in '04.) See it he http://alexisparkinn.com/reno_air_race_suite.htm Air mail? Given Iowa City's historic place in air mail history (see http://alexisparkinn.com/the_iowa_city_airport.htm for the whole story) I would LOVE to do an Air Mail Suite. Unfortunately, I simply can't make it sound any more boring. There is simply no non-aviation person who would EVER book an "Air Mail Suite".... :-( Bush Pilot? (again, maybe objectionable to those with sophmoring humor) Yeah, we've batted that one around. Maybe "Back Country Suite"? All Beavers on Floats, and lots of Super Cubs on tundra tires? It could be decorated like a back-woods cabin that might appeal to the non-pilot crowd... -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
