Default Aviator's Gin

Unsolicited testimonial: I tried Tri-Motor Amber Ale at a
bar-and-grill in Kalispell last summer, then came back the next night
despite their so-so food just for another pint of Tri-Motor. I like
their taps, too: propeller blades. Nice touch.



There's a McDonald's I always stop at when I'm in Iowa. It's off of Wright
Brothers Blvd, just down the road from the (big) Eastern Iowa Cedar Rapids
Airport (KCID)

The story I heard is a local aviation enthusiast approached McDonald's with
an idea: Let's have some fun with your interior. I would have to say they
succeeded.

It's not just a picture here or some artwork there, rather, it's an entire
airport theme throughout the ...restaurant. Taxi lights, an airline fuselage
section to sit in, markings, display cases, airport lights above all of the
registers, etc. Very fun.
