Name an Aviation Theme Suite -- Win a Prize!

So we FINALLY finished the new "Piper Cub Suite" yesterday (some of that
artwork has been in our dining room for over three years!) at our aviation
theme suite hotel, and we're embarking on our last two aviation theme
suites, the "Apollo Suite" and the "Oshkosh Suite" -- both which have been
in the works for over two years.

However, since we created the "Cub Suite" by chopping one of our 2-story
townhouse suites in half (by walling off the stairs), we suddenly find
ourselves with an "extra" suite to name!

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.

For example, our "Memphis Belle Suite" sounds "pretty" to folks who have no
idea who Bob Morgan was, and our "Mustang Suite" sounds kinda racy, even to
those who have NO idea what a P-51 is... We must be careful to appeal to
the NON-flying crowd, too, which eliminates a lot of great names.

Ideally, the suite would honor a well-known era or aspect of aviation. Look
here to see which names are already in use:

Good luck!

for Email, make the obvious change in the address.

Since this is probably one of the smaller suites how about, "The Mercury
Suite"

"Anola Gay" sounds pretty

That suite would be da bomb.

Plus it might appeal to the "metrosexual" crowd

But seriously folks, I think a DC-3 suite would be cool.

How about, "The Extra Suite"?

Hey Jay,

Since this suite is small, why not call it the "Ultralight" Suite?

Tom

Well, I'm not sure you can classify a 450 sq ft, 1-bedroom hot tub suite as
"small" -- it's sorta "medium sized" for our place, but huge by regular
motel standards -- but I *do* like the ultralight theme.

Sadly, the name just sounds dumb to the non-flying public. We need
something that allows us to do ultralights, without the name.
