Chapter 260

Marcy looked straight at me and asked, "Where do you think they are going with all these different contracts with us? We are going to have contracts with DHS, the FBI and CIA on the hangar and now it sounds like they may want part or all or the super hangar."

"I don't know, but the money is good and with the markups that Frank just approved - double good. We may let them lease part of the super hangar but we are going to need part of it ourselves; having a divider halfway may be a blessing in disguise," I said.

"We would have been months getting the equipment he got for us together, and never at that price. If he holds true to the flights he indicated, the C130'S are damn near gifts unless they turn into some kind of maintenance hog," I replied.

"The fuel truck is gong to save us a lot of money. Our contract with the fuel supplier for the small truck that we have includes a 25 cent per gallon surcharge to pay for the truck rental and maintenance. It was a lot of money but the price to buy the truck and maintain it was an offset. Now with the Bombardiers and the addition of the 130s it makes sense for us to own one instead of lease," Lorrie said.

"I researched them while he was talking; the things hold almost 10,000 gallons if they have the extra tanks. I am going to raise the reorder level on the jet (A) just to be safe." Lorrie replied. "The tail height is 38 feet; they will just fit in the main section of our hangar."

"I want to hire several additional people for ground service now that all our aircraft are going to be at Morton Field. There is no need to tie up the mechanics with those chores. The mechanics can train someone to be full time on the fuel truck as their primary duty and have them report to Robbie," Lorrie said.

"It will take 3 to 4 weeks to get them hired and that will take us to December. Tony has said everything will be completed except the super hanger by December 15th. I plan on sending the final applications to Eric for a background check before we interview them," Lorrie added. "We have to make a decision on an airport manager soon."

"I am thinking we make a few temporary positions until everything is completed and then reevaluate the entire office structure. It may make sense to move everything aviation related into the offices at the terminal building. There is going to be plenty of space there," I replied.

"Carson seems to have her head in the right place and dedicated to the flight business and the rentals. Sabrina has worked well with the dusting management. Team them up and see how they work the Aviation unit together for a couple of months," I replied.

"We cannot keep dumping more daily responsibilities onto the executive level. I don't want us to burn out or loose our private time. The decision is yours, Lorrie, and you can always change it if there are problems," I said.

"Let's sleep on it - both of them are going to be here tomorrow helping with the plane shuffle. The weekend is going to be long and busy; a lot of things can change. I should be back from Frost Borough after lunch to help. We can play with some more ideas then," I said.

We worked out in the gym for a couple of hours, hit the tanning booth and then the hot tub before we needed to be in the basement for tonight's orgy. Tonight there were only a few guests. By eleven everyone was satisfied.

We learned something new tonight. When Jenny had her orgasm the boys got very active - moving around and kicking - you could even see her abdomen move. Crash had been right when he said every day would be a learning experience, once we could tell they were active.

At seven we were already over to the office. Sadie made us breakfast in the refreshment area. It was one more of the changes that Ching Lee and Vicky made to the gym operations. One could get a healthy breakfast of all kinds of fruits and power drinks. I had tried a few but tried to stay away from them.

Some of them were definitely for die hard physical nuts. Blended squid and asparagus juice was not me. Sadie made traditional pancakes, eggs, scrapple, sausage and real fresh squeezed orange juice for us.

We briefed all the pilots on the new procedures for Morton Field. Jack, Lorrie and Crash had developed the approaches to the runway, entering the landing pattern and procedures for the taxiways. Lorrie passed out other airport information that she and Carson had put together.

The tower radio frequency for Morton Field was 130.00. That was to be used to announce arrivals, entering the pattern and taking off prior to rollout, if the tower was closed. When there was no one in the tower someone in the terminal offices could respond. For the time being the pilots or mechanics in our hangar could respond.
