Why Quincy? Two reasons:


The new restaurant on the field is nice (called "Tailwinds"), and the
food was awesome. Quite affordable too -- but just don't be in too
much of a hurry. We waited 45 minutes for (what we thought was)
pretty basic sandwiches.

I'm pretty sure its been called Tailwinds for a long time. At least
for the last year since I was up there last.... Let's see.. digging in
my log book... UIN, UIN, UIN.. oh my has it been that long? Ok, wow
it has been a long time since I went to UIN, lets see over 2 whole
years!

And the mysterious Russian jet fighters are still sitting on the ramp
in Quincy. We haven't been there in a several years, and they are
still sitting there, waiting for...a buyer? Who knows?

I thought they were "owned?" as part of that maintenance shop right
across the ramp from them. The one that usually has an L-39 sitting
out front decked out to the 9's.

There's a husband and wife that had a huge challenger jet nearby as
well. Story I heard from the FBO was that he had his hangar door
wired into a garage door opener so he could open it up and taxi in
from the cockpit.
