Today was a lot of FUN for my daughter and I and was nice seeing some of you their. I would like to give two praises. First to Chuck Eason of the AA Tower. Chuck is the reason we had a KC-135 today, a KC-10 last year and most of the Military aircraft for past Kids Days. He has some serious contacts in all branches of the Military and spends countless hours of his own time arranging things every year. In addition he also coordinates AA's display aircraft and two years in a row managed to snag one of AA newest 737-823's. Last year N870NN was only a few weeks old, this year only slightly older N895NN made its first flight on June 6, 2012 and was delivered to AA on July 3, 2012 and currently only has 252 cycles on her. Although AA's is not my favorite scheme of all time their is something about being close up to an AA Boeing when they are that new, really nice. So thank you Chuck, next year is going to be pretty hard to top the KC-10 and now KC-135. My second praise to my daughter who will be six on the 26th. While she really seems to Love airplanes she also understands how much I enjoy them to. Today we got in line at 1120 AM and left the parking lot after the KC-135 and C-47 departed around 1700. She never once said Daddy lets go Daddy I'm tired she just stayed with me Happy and Cheerful ALL DAY and didn't complain about anything once. I am so blessed and Lucky !!! Cheers LGA777
