He came to the T-38 squadron bar at CBM when I was there. GREAT guy - taught all the young pups his old fighter pilot songs and drank A LOT. He wouldn't let anyone call him sir, just wanted to feel like one of the guys again.

I have his book, "Fighter Pilot" sitting right here on my desk to read. Sounds like it should be an interesting read.

Two I have read in the last 6 months,
Fate is the Hunter
The High and the Mighty.

Fate is the Hunter at the top of the list for Pilot Req'd reading, what those guys did was truly pioneering and man..talk about establishing our industry and writing those safety rules and regulations in blood....awesome men.

Bluer Skies Ahead for U.S. Airlines - Barrons.com

Just remember, there's no money in Hawaii. We should pass all the rest of our Hawaii flying to Alaska Airlines. Let them try to pick some meat off that bone. Haha they are suckers!

Oooops this just in....

Alaska Air: It has been the top-performing domestic airline stock this year, falling just 4%, to 55, mostly because 2011 profit estimates have increased, and now stand at $7.64 a share. Alaska Air had its fifth straight record quarterly profit in the June period, and it's paying down debt and buying back small amounts of stock. Analysts credit veteran management, good labor relations, an underappreciated West Coast network and popularity with leisure travelers. Much of its growth is coming from West Coast-to-Hawaii routes, with the company avoiding competitive San Francisco and Los Angeles airports and flying such routes as San Diego to Honolulu. Linenberg's target: 80.
