What about John Travolta and his private 707 at his airpark home in
Florida? Tom Jay Honeck wrote: While contemplating a "Celebrity Pilot's Suite" (or something like that) I was just absent-mindedly searching the FAA database for movie stars, and found this: ******************************************* Name : JOLIE, ANGELINA Airman's Address : 1990 S BUNDY DR LOS ANGELES, CA, 90025-5240 FAA Region : Western/Pacific Date of Medical : Jun, 2004 Class of Medical : 3 Expiration of Class 3 privileges : Jun, 2007 Airman Certificates : Student Pilot : Private Pilot (foreign based) Airplane Single Engine Land ******************************************* Any idea what the "Private Pilot (foreign based)" is all about? Does this mean she's certificated in other countries that our own FAA doesn't recognize as legit? I know Harrison Ford and Tom Cruise are pilots, but can you list any others? Anyone know how to get in touch with these folks? I presume the addresses listed in the database really aren't where they live, but it would be fun to have pictures of each celebrity pilot in the suite, preferably autographed... Any ideas? -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

"Dick Meade" wrote in message ... "Colin W Kingsbury" wrote in message ink.net... A google search of that address suggests it's a large office building. Presumably her doctor, lawyer, or indian chief has a suite the Semi-educated guess says this actually is her office. Suite 200. Chivan Productions. Chivan is the middle name (or original last name) of her adopted son Maddox. It is also the registered address for her SR-22. Give it a whirl, Jay. Wow, you're an even better stalker than I am It's kind of surprising that nobody mentioned that a recent National Enquirer had 4 pictures of her flying her plane. It mentioned that she was returning to land "after a 4 hour lesson". There was also one of the British tabs that had a picture of her in an airplane (only partial view with the outline of the cockpit) captioned with something about her flying her own jet. From the outline anyone could tell it was a cherokee-type plane) -cwk. |

"Jay Honeck" wrote in message news:Z6ySd.15354$zH6.4068@attbi_s53... You know how Bugs Bunny would always blow into his thumb, and inflate his fist before he punched someone? I can't help but think that is what AJ's boobs looked like in Tomb Raider! g And this is a problem? Actually my father (64) says he doesn't care much for her type. "I don't like women who look like they could beat me up" is how he puts it. Nicole Kidman is more his style. I think she looks like she was CNC-milled out of a block of aluminum and if you touch her you might get freezer burn. I suspect neither of us would kick either of them out of bed for eating cookies. -cwk. |
