Ah, Comrade Kleinski. Alas, I could not attend. How was it, and were any of the usual suspects there?

A lot more than the YYZ show...However I got a nicely framed PIA 777-200ER for $35 at the YYZ show which is displayed nicely near the cabinets holding the freak collection. .

Yeah I buy my Airbus stickers from him. And I buy those models that are hard to find and I get a chance to see other merchandise he brings. Three suitcases full of merchandise and bring a female companion along. That's how he travels to Chicago. I wish I could see him at the LA show since he lives in the area.
