That is bold, my friend! Bold indeed! They have created exactly the opposite of this and thanks to this, I will never set foot in their museum.

I think I will rather loudly tell me girl about this frakas on the trolley from the gate to the flight line.

"Continue to Seek a Coalition to Oversee the 2018 Air Show"

There's the payoff. They want on the money train. Air show income far outstrips anything they could hope to earn through normal operations on those days, and they had a tough climb to gain an injunction. Would have had to document actual economic harm, and or actual evidence PoF intentionally obstructed access. To give a preliminary injunction, the judge would have to believe plaintiffs had a strong likelihood of prevailing. They would have needed to present strong evidence of actual loss at the hearing. Good luck with that. No matter who was pushing this, if they hired a good lawyer, that person would be pointing out pitfalls, which happen to look like a field of crevasses, of this litigation.

Something else occurs to me where Yanks appears to feel snubbed at previous talks with POF in the planning phase. How much of the liability were they willing to assume with POF to get a cut of the pie?

The key phrase of that press release was simple -



This is where we get to what they really wanted - they wanted the lawyers involved, they wanted a contract that guaranteed them a cut of the pie. The response out of PoF has made it clear what the split for liability and work would be - 100% on PoF and 0 on the plaintiffs. This is why PoF refused to meet with them - they knew there was no chance at a fair agreement because these other parties just want part of the income.

So finally, after we all thought there were clever business motives behind all this, it come down to one thing - jealousy: "I want what they've got".

Shameful.
