The Kentucky Derby always brings in some interesting aircraft. While pretty sleepy the rest of the year, April is different. Last week I dropped my mate off for a business flight to Cleveland. There at the cargo terminal adjacent to the passenger terminal sat a gorgeous Lockheed L-1011 in Saudi Arabian colors. No need to tell you what it was doing here. When I went back to pick her up Friday there was an additional gem parked on the tarmac - an United Arab Emirates 747SP. I've never seen one of those and never expected to as they aren't used much, especially in the US. Ah, Derby beauties! Most people here like April for the horses. Cheers, Jim

i remember going to the derby one year i was in college, with my girl friend who was lived in louisville.all i remember were mint juleps, there were horses? :-lol
