Air ANOA

by The Rock Relic

In case you’re wonderin’ what that title means, it’s the most common response when I ask folks if they’d ever traveled by plane. It reads “air a no a” (or, There ain’t no way!).
Still, going by air is quicker and more efficient than by car … especially if you’ve gotta load of miles travel. And it honestly seems that agents and employees at Charlotte International go the extra mile to provide you with the best and friendliest service of any airport in the nation! Sure, the terminal traffic can get under your already-impatient-for-the-next-flight-out skin, but that’s normal in every big-city airport.

I take special pride in the CDIA because, back in 1974, I helped build some of the runways. We knew we were onto something very special, and each person who was building onto the Charlotte-Douglas International Airport felt a tremendous sense of pride in his or her accomplishment. The finished product was undoubtedly gonna be beautiful — a crowning glory for the Queen City.

Although we knew it was going to be a busy hub between the major cities, no one had any idea how vital it would be until the new millenium started, and thousands of dignitaries, congressional bigwigs and others would be using it as a point of stop or transfer for meetings, sessions and negotiations for everything from the WTC attacks, disaster preparedness in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, the Iraq War and much more. Not only that, but the millions who’ve passed through its concourses and corridors have had a taste of true Charlotte hospitality. It’s something we can be proud of as it’s continuously cited as one of America’s top airports.

GIVE ME THE TOOLS! I’LL DO THE JOB!

This quote, credited to Sir Winston Churchill, is one spoken by every mechanic and contractor in America at one time or another. Whether nailers, compressors, sandpaper or air tools, the instruments of his/her work are important … and, of course, for them to be of maximum benefit and usage, they must be the best; quality product demands quality tools.
