Post. Of. The. Day.
I nominate rolov for the party planning committee. Even if he does think green is whorish.

Of course, we'll be towing real, live airplanes as part of the race. Due to maxed-out utilization of the widebodies, however, I'll settle for towing the freshly retired 733s

I'm going to latch on to an ERJ and smoke you on the runways. With such a lower weight to haul I should be able to go way faster.
I want a chance at jetway driving as one of the tours.

I'll use a baggage tractor to haul that ERJ (preferably a 135) around and beat all of you. Once I get that thing moving, (might pop a few wheelies trying to start) they'll be no stopping me.

ERJ? Ha! Too heavy! Besides, the 135s are gone now.
At IAH go for a Saab 340. Much smaller and lighter. If this was at CLE, then go for the Beech 1900.

I would be happy to teach you have to drive a jetway.
Maybe one of auction items could be "Take an Elite to work day". You could be a gate agent for the day.

Now would this be an all ops going normal day or a hint of rain at EWR type of day? Will the real GA's be playing SIBP Plats? Sounds like a fun idea to be honest.

Then they would all upgrade themselves for their flight home!

I would bid on it. Maybe I'd have a better chance of winning that than I had on the beverage carts last year.

Jetway driving is fun -- but you can't go too far from the concourse
I'd bet that if you did this at the right airport you'd even get to learn how to keep away from angry coworkers!
