Didn't Bobby DeNiro drive one of those in 'Midnight Run' (1988)?

They have one of those at ValAir at Wiley Post. They also have an old dirty minivan, so naturally that's what I get.

I think Ellington (EFD) had a Jag, but they also had free food, free beer and sat TV with every channel you could imagine.

I agree - this is probably the best thread on APF.

Innisfree at Pensacola (PNS) has a couple of 70s GTOs. One is even a convertible

I will take pics next time I am out there.

Sad news to report; the Famous Flower Aviation Pontiac 6000 Crew Car is no more!!!!! After over 13 years of shuttling transient pilots to hotels, lunch and dinner spots…..(and who knows what else;-) it was replaced by the Pontiac Montana below. I was told the 6000 was sold off for $300!!! It should be in a museum!!!!LOL!
