Maybe I can talk the boss into a trip out there and you can get some
JetProp
time.

What's a JetProp? I'm up for it, whatever it is!

Used to be the Rockwell JetProp, now it's called the Twin Commander. It runs
the spread from the 690 to the 695,A,B models. Twin TPE331-10 engines. The
most gut wrenching accelleration you've ever felt short of a Porsche.

Do you have a Skyraider room? If so, he definitely WILL come out.

Well, that will depend on our decision regarding the Viet Nam era. I
suspect it will be called the "Phantom Suite" just because of the double
meaning of the word.

This is an important distinction for us. You and I know the "Memphis
Belle"
suite is about a bomber, but most of our guests think it's decorated in an
English Country style, and sounds pretty.

Hmm...the Skyraider suite would have to be done up in jungle motif :~(


"Skyraider" will probably be discarded for the same reason "Hellcat"
was --
we just don't want that kind of name associated with the hotel, since the
uninformed (who make up the majority of our guests) will misinterpret the
meaning. (Heck, I even had the "Hellcat Suite" door plaque made before we
decided against *that* one...)

Well, just call the Skyraider room the "Sandy Room". :~)
