In The Lav of a DC9 With Donald Trump
When Donald Trump bought the old Eastern AirlinesShuttle, that had served Boston and Washington with hourly flights, he came to LaGuardiaAirport to launch the newly branded Trump Shuttle, in theform of an old DC9 that waited quietly outside at the gate bound for Washington.
The Donald stood at the check-in gate greeting thepress.
I was there as the Trump Shuttle flak came to myoffice at AirCargo News FlyingTypers in the Marine Air Terminal and asked me to attendthe event.
"Look I need numbers, maybe we could comp youto stay a few days on us at The TrumpTaj Mahal AC in Atlantic City that he owns!"
I said we don't gamble but took sympathy andjumped aboard the airport bus to the main terminal. Something good for LGA andNew York City was the larger calling during those days.
