Name an Aviation Theme Suite -- Win a Prize!

I don't know about a name, but the Oshkosh suite MUST have an authentic porta-potty enclosing the toilet, but I won't go so far as to demand an actual porta-potty in place of the toilet. Or just a porta-potty door as facing on the real bathroon door. |

Name an Aviation Theme Suite -- Win a Prize!
I kinda like a "Jet Set" suite, going back to a period of aviation
during the 60's and 70's were gettting on a plane really meant something. Image art-deco, TWA, "Catch me if you can" sort of thing. Would have broad appeal, be more recent than 40's aviation, and still meet the requirement of a aviation theme. Alternatively, a 'tower' suite would be cool if you could some how recreate a control tower in the room, starting with the narrow stairs up to the suite. Beacons, shrimp boats, radar displays, whatever. Brad |

Bed has a wing over it - with strut bracing to the wall. 'Always on' TV airpane images turn off automatically at 8 pm. No fridge - just a couple of coolers. "World's Busiest Aviation Suite" banner out on the balcony. Sprinkler system sometimes goes off at night. Montblack |

"Montblack" Indoor/outdoor carpeting. Shower has a kitchen sprayer attached to some plastic tubing. Bed has a wing over it - with strut bracing to the wall. 'Always on' TV airpane images turn off automatically at 8 pm. No fridge - just a couple of coolers. "World's Busiest Aviation Suite" banner out on the balcony. Sprinkler system sometimes goes off at night. Free party every Wednesday night Shopping cart parked next to a tree in front for exclusive use of that suites guests Daylight 'til Dark Air Sounds CD playing in the background as a recording of those air show announcers plays over the top of it. (complimentary ear plugs) Zog food delivered to the suite (hmmm scratch that one) Wild gyrations of the heating/AC system Dunno.... this suite may not go over with any but the most addicted. Jim |

news:8acvf.467066$084.261909@attbi_s22... Thus, it's time to play "Name That Suite"! The winner earns a free night in "their" suite, upon completion. Here are the rules: Republic Suite North Central Suite Pan-Am Suite Generic "Airline Suite" Isn't there some kind of historic hanger or something at the airport that has something to do with some now defunct airline that flew in/out there? Name it after that airline. Connect the Hotel to the "historic" aspect of the airport that it's next to. -- Geoff the sea hawk at wow way d0t com remove spaces and make the obvious substitutions to reply by mail Spell checking is left as an excercise for the reader. |

The Thrust'n'Drag Suite
The Stall'n'Spin Suite -- CD "Jay Honeck" wrote in message news:8acvf.467066$084.261909@attbi_s22... 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: http://alexisparkinn.com/theme_suites.htm Good luck! -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Well, I'm late to the game on this one, but I didn't see this suggestion in a quick review of the other "submissions." I realize that this is also associated with a disaster, which probably rules it out, however, I like the "Concorde Suite." I always loved the look of this airplane and it was, is, and possibly always will be the only commercially successful SST. It would be great to see it memorialized at the Honeck resort. And almost everyone, even non-aviation types, knew of the Concorde. Matt |
