Do you think A4 would be happy to pilot it (we could use Brinkley as the runway) and what about putting Jimbo in charge of the maintenance crew?
Have a really great holiday and we look forward to seeing you again real soon  |
The private plane fund is gaining ground what with the few quid that the Lady Mayoress has won in addition to her $30 lottery ticket a few weeks ago. I'm sure that A-4 would be happy to fly a nice, moderately sized, high performance jet but we will have to send him to school for familiarization classes!
If we assure him that there is no MB ejection seat on the aircraft I think he'll probably go for the idea like a donkey eating strawberries!!!
I'm sure that the fee would only be enough to cover operating costs which might be fairly reasonable!
From what I hear from Jimbo, we could probably used Hillsbourough Trail for a landing strip as I have it on good authority is is flat, straight and has little traffic to impede high speed vehicles!
I think that Jimbo would be wonderful with the maintenance but I only worry about what he will charge us for his time???
We need to SKYPE when we get back home. We miss you guys too much!!!
Regards to you and Hugs & Kisses to the girls!!!
