Barry-
I live right up the road from Carson City (Sparks, NV) so you will
technically be a guest of those of us who live here. I'm not sure what your
schedule is like- but if you have time you really should get up to Reno to
see the US National Championship Air Races at KRTS (formerly 4SD) airport.
The races will be taking place at the same time as the fly-in so it
conflicts a bit- but the theme is similar! If you'd like any suggestions
for other things to do while visiting the Great State of Nevada, please let
me know!
I'm going to make every effort to get down to Carson to see you all face to
face finally- but I own a team that races each September- and I tend to be
"busy as a one legged man in an ***-kicking contest" during that week of the
year.
I will try to bring N414C down to Carson so you guys can see the refit she
came through. They close KRTS for traffic during the races so it will take
some pre-planning. I'll keep you posted.

Hi Robert,
Well, the Fly-In dates, 16-19 September, were deliberately chosen for to
coincide with the Reno Air Races!
I think several days have been earmarked as being free of any talks
etc., so that people can attend.
Hopefully, we'll all have the opportunity to meet you at some stage.
Best Regards,
Barry

Subject: | West Jet Airlines |
You've got to love the Canadian sense of humour. West Jet is
based in Calgary, Alberta. It's flight attendants are famous for
trying to make the in-flight safety lecture and pre-flight announcements
more entertaining. Here are recent examples:
On West Jet flights there's no assigned seating. You sit where
you want. Passengers were having a hard time choosing seats when a
flight attendant announced, "People, people we're not picking out
furniture here. Find a seat and get in it!"
-----------------------
On another flight featuring a senior crew of attendants, the pilot
announced, "Ladies and gentlemen, we've reached cruising altitude.
We'll be turning down the lights both for your comfort and to enhance
the appearance of the cabin crew."
------------------------
On landing, an attendant said, "Please be sure to take all of your
belongings with you. If you're going to leave anything, make sure it's
something we'd like to have."
------------------------
"There may be 50 ways to leave your lover, but there are only 4
ways out of this airplane."
-----------------------
"Thank you for flying West Jet Express. We hope you enjoyed giving
us the business as much as we enjoyed taking you for a ride."
---------------------------
As the plane landed and was coming to a stop at the Vancouver
airport, a lone voice came over the loudspeaker: "Whoa, big fella.
WHOA!"
-------------------------
After a particularly rough landing during thunderstorms in
Ontario, a flight attendant on a West Jet flight announced, "Please take
care when opening the overhead compartments. After a landing like that,
everything sure as hell shifted."
-----------------------
From a West Jet employee: "Welcome aboard West Jet Flight 245 to
Calgary. To operate your seat belt, insert the metal tab into the buckle
and pull it tight. You'll find that it works just like every other seat
belt. However, if you don't know how to operate one, you probably
shouldn't be out in public unsupervised."
---------------------
"In the event of a sudden loss of cabin pressure, masks will
descend from the ceiling. Stop screaming, grab the mask, and pull it
over your face. If you're traveling with a small child, secure your
mask before assisting with theirs. If you're traveling with more than
one child, pick your favorite."
-----------------------
"The weather at our destination is 50 degrees with broken clouds.
We'll try to have them fixed before we arrive. Remember, nobody loves
you or your money more than West Jet Airlines."
------------------------
"Your seat cushions can be used for flotation. In the event of an
emergency landing, please paddle to shore and take them with our
compliments."
-----------------------
"As you exit the plane, make sure to gather all of your
belongings. Anything left behind will be distributed evenly among the
flight attendants. Please do not leave children or spouses."
---------------------------
And from the pilot during his welcome message: "West Jet Airlines
is pleased to announce that we have some of the best flight attendants
in the industry. Unfortunately, none of them are on this flight!"
-----------------------------
Heard on West Jet Airlines just after a very hard landing in
Edmonton; The flight attendant came on the intercom and said, "That was
quite a bump, and I know what y'all are thinking. I'm here to tell you
it wasn't the airline's fault, it wasn't the pilot's fault, it wasn't
the flight attendant's fault, it was the asphalt."
------------------------------
Overheard on a West Jet Airlines flight into Regina on a
particularly windy and bumpy day: During the final approach, the Captain
was really having to fight it. After an extremely hard landing, the
Flight Attendant said, "Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to Regina. Please
remain in your seats with your seat belts fastened while the Captain
taxis what's left of our airplane to the gate!"
------------------------------
Another flight attendant's comment on a less than perfect landing:
"We ask you to please remain seated as Captain Kangaroo bounces us to
the terminal."
---------------------
An airline pilot wrote that on this particular flight he had
hammered his ship into the runway really hard. The airline had a policy
which required the first officer to stand at the door while the
Passengers exited, smile, and give them a "Thanks for flying our
airline." He said that, in light of his bad landing, he had a hard time
looking the passengers in the eye, thinking that someone would have a
smart comment. Finally everyone had gotten off except for a little old
lady walking with a cane. She said, "Sir, do you mind if I ask you a
question?"
"Why, no, Ma'am," said the pilot. "What is it?"
The little old lady said, "Did we land, or were we shot down?"
-------------------
After a real crusher of a landing in Halifax, the attendant came
on with, "Ladies and Gentlemen, please remain in your seats until
Captain Crash and the Crew have brought the aircraft to a screeching
halt against the gate. And, once the tire smoke has cleared and the
warning bells are silenced, we will open the door and you can pick your
way through the wreckage to the terminal."
-----------------------
Part of a flight attendant's arrival announcement: "We'd like to
thank you folks for flying with us today. And, the next time you get the
insane urge to go blasting through the skies in a pressurized metal
tube, we hope you'll think of West Jet Airways."
-----------------------
Heard on a West Jet Airline flight. "Ladies and gentlemen, if you
wish to smoke, the smoking section on this airplane is on the wing. If
you can light 'em, you can smoke 'em."
-----------------------
A plane was taking off from the Winnipeg airport. After it reached
a comfortable cruising altitude, the captain made this announcement.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Flight Number 293, nonstop from
Winnipeg to Montreal. The weather ahead is good and we should have a
smooth and uneventful flight. Now sit back and relax... OH, MY GOD!!"
Silence followed. Moments later, the captain returned to the
radio and said, "Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm sorry if I scared you
earlier. While I was talking to you, the flight attendant spilled hot
coffee on my lap. You should see the front of my pants!"
A passenger yelled, "That's nothing! You should see the back of
mine."--
