(TO, CAT WITH A K, I GUESS I WASN'T THE ONLY ONE AROUND WHEN COLE WAS FEEDING THE LIVESTOCK)

I WANDERED INTO THE OLD RHINEBECK AERODROME ONE DAY AND THOUGHT I MIGHT BE ABLE TO GET THE NEWLY AQUIRED ROLLS ROYCE STARTED. I STAYED 14 YEARS.
THE ORA BECAME MY MAIN FOCUS. I SPENT ALL MY FREE TIME THERE,AS WOULD, MY SOON TO BE FAMILY. IN 1985 ,BOB THOLL ANNOUNCED THE BIRTH OF MY DAUGHTER TO THE SATURDAY CROWD. THIS FALL AFTER 3 SEASONS, SHE WAS TOLD SHE WAS FIRED. AS OF THIS WRITING NO ONE HAS GIVING HER AN EXPLAINATION AS TO WHY. SOUND FAMILIAR?
IF LETTING HER GO IS SOMEHOW CONNECTED WITH GETTING RID OF THE OLD GUARD, THAN WE ARE PROUD TO BE FROM "THE OLD GUARD".
IT HAS BEEN SAID TO LEAVE EMOTIONS OUT OF THIS DEBATE.
NO WAY! EMOTIONS ALONG WITH GOOD ECONOMICS ARE THE BASIC INGEDIENT FOR A SUCCESSFUL AND UNIQUE AERODROME.
I HAVE ALSO HEARD TALK OF THEME PARKS. IN MY OPINION THE ORA SHOULD BE TREATED MORE LIKE THE FAMILY FARM THAN SOME CORPERATION THAT HAS IT'S PRIORITIES BASED ON MAKING MONEY MORE THAN THE PRODUCT IT PRODUCES. THE ORA SHOULD BE OPERATING TO EDUCATE. NOT TO DAZZLE.
TWO OF COLE PALEN'S MOST FAMOUS PHRASES WERE "YOUNG TYPES" AND "NO PROBLEM". THE MAN LITERALLY TRIED TO MOVE A MOUNTIAN IN ORDER TO GO FORWARD.
I WONDER IF SOME OF THE" OLD TYPES" ARE THINKING "BIG PROBLEM"

HERE CAT!!!
