Thus, it's time to play "Name That Suite"! The winner earns a free night
in "their" suite, upon completion. Here are the rules:
1. The name must roll off the tongue, and be no longer than four words.
(I.E.: "The Charles Lindbergh Suite")
2. No aviation disasters, please. (No "Hindenburg Suite", please...)
3. Nothing potentially offensive or double-meaning (No "Bong Suite" or
"Hellcat Suite"...)
4. Combat-related names are iffy, unless they "sound pretty" to the
uninformed.
Here's my entry: The Aviatrix Suite
Fill it with memorabilia, charts and biographical books of the pioneer
ladies of aviation:
