Back then, all the air carrier traffic that had once relied on MDW had evacuated to the new and huge ORD. There were two United flights a day; that was it for airline traffic. Still, somehow, they were always behind me on final. On my first solo the tower called as I was turning final, "Cessna 14F, traffic is a 727 on final over the lake, no delay on the runway." Then as I was flaring, "14F, NO DELAY ON THE RUNWAY." Needless to say I took the highspeed at high speed. It was just as well, of course, because if you landed long, the runway got really bad - cracks, potholes large enough to swallow small nosewheels, and 4 foot tall weeds. Today I'm planning a summer trip and decided to find out what things are like now. A quick call to Signature reveals that just to pick up a passenger [my wife will be meeting me in Chicago] I would have to pay the following: $25 landing fee [city] $38 security fee [airport] $90 handling fee [Signature, but I'm sure the other FBOs have theirs too], and $25 parking fee if there for more than one hour Grand total: $178 for quick in, pick up, and out. Whew! Oh, but since I'm a Signature tenant in SoCal, I will get the .35/gal discount from the $4.98/gal fuel charge. So if I purchase 50 gals at $4.63, for $232, they will waive the handling fee. Oh, well that's different. ;>) I think I will fly into DuPage and rent a car for $30. ak -- ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 10:58:14 AM PST US From: "Moe" Subject: Re: Commander-List: Commander List...JB is Missing --> Commander-List message posted by: "Moe" Barry, Any chance that you will be coming through LAX and have some time?

Just for a few more hours. I was a 16 years old and had no real $$ for flying lessons; slapping burgers didn't go very far. A few fits and starts in between, but didn't pick it up again seriously until about 12 years ago in SoCal and got my license here. After the checkride, my instructor pointed out that it might have taken 28 years, but I finally got my license. I told him that I would admit to being slow, but that nobody can call me a quitter. ;>) N811D is based as SNA.
