He's right - those Jollys aren't Sh..hooks.  And as Jolly Greens go, they're pretty Special.

Old Rheinbeck Aerodrome was mentioned back a ways.  Awesome place  for pre-WWII planes.

I had the pleasure of meeting the late, Great Cole Palen (the founder) back around 1974.  As a side note, Charles Schulz was a BIG air fan.  The whole idea of Snoopy and the Red Baron was born at/because of Rheinbeck Aerodrome.

I had the good fortune to spend an entire weekend there back then.

SHB, The pilots that hauled us around in the Chinooks were from the 1st. Cav. A bunch of crazy people, them pilots in their Black Stetsons.  This would have back in 69.

Every now an then we see a Chinook, they look so out of place in the sky these days.  They were used in construction a lot when I was a kid an folks still said "whirly-bird".

If it has rotors on it I got inta the habit of usin' 'helo'. How we referred to 'em on the radio.

We were stuck with a loon back in the day. One whut was promoted WAY beyond 'is point of competency. E'erone has at least one of 'em. Had an event whut we expected trouble outtah so he manages ta get 'isownself a helo 'n a pilot. The boy's name was Chuck, so when he was on the ground we called 'im 'Ground Chuck', in the air he wes 'Up Chuck'.

Almost quittin' time on my last day in IA the first time. Alone in the office, e'er'body else had left early. The idiot called 'n told me not ta leave, he needed an IA investigator. Asked 'im what was up 'n he told me I was gettin' transferred so he couldn't tell me.

That, mi amigo, is straight up. No exaggeration.
