In an ideal world, Chicken Wings would have long been turned into a cartoon show on Comedy Central or Fox. Then Mike and I would be filthy rich with our very own Scrooge McDuck like Money Bins, and would be able to tramp from Sun’n'Fun to Oshkosh to Reno and every airshow in between. Alas, we both have to work our butts off to make ends meet, just like everybody else out there. Well, at least we both made it to Oshkosh this year! I sure as heck would love to go and see the air races in Reno one day though too!
When I worked at the airport, for two different companies, my schedule was week on/week off and the rotation was such I was thinking of hitting the races and likely would have been able to go see the first private spaceflight…sadly the company was bought out, the management was horrid and I quit. Upper management ignored my warnings and then made further stupid decisions so no one there works that great schedule any longer. When I was there we were ranked #1 by number of delays vs number of flights and within months were ranked bottom quarter which was the reason the first company I worked for had lost the fueling contract.
Working every week of the month really sucks.
Ha, yes she SHOULD have got him to buy the drinks first, but then babes just want him gone ASAP
When you get to the Reno Air Races, hook up with a racing aircraft crew for max. fun.
