That was the Med-Flight hangar you trashed!!! You didn't see the big
"H" and all of that? They didn't think it was cute at all. You're lucky you've still got both/any testicles. I don't think we blasted a Med-Flight hangar. The guy on my wing said it was the "maintenance hangar" -- and I don't recall any big "H" our front. But I suppose that would explain why there were there on a Saturday afternoon. First of all, our new airport has some of the best markings anywhere. There is a yellow line and taxiway signs that are new and easily seen. How in the world did you get over to the maintenance hangar if you could see our new terminal building (the one in your pictures)? Yeah, it's kind of funny, but we absolutely could NOT believe that the big, brand new building was the "real" FBO for little folks like us! At every other airport of Huntsville's size that we've visited, the big, beautiful, new building out front is always the terminal for commuter airline service -- NOT the FBO for Spam Cans. In the absence of any answers to our inquiries on Unicom, we pulled in front of what LOOKED like the FBO, trying to find the gas pumps -- which was the older brick building with the sign out front. (I'll bet that used to be the FBO, right? It looks like every other FBO in the country.) When the lady inside the "real" FBO finally answered, we taxied over to the gorgeous new building -- which is VERY impressive, I must say. At some point along the way we must've blasted the poor guy inside the open maintenance hangar -- although, as I said, neither of us thought we were close enough to have done such a thing. Still, after over three hours in the air, "road head" can make you goofy. I apologized profusely, and we moved on. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
