Northwest Orient

Today a friend and I met to tour the Northwest Airlines museum which is located on the 3rd floor of the Crown Royal Hotel. Remember their commercial jingle? Northwest Orient (gong) The Fanline Airlline. They had the gong there and I got to hit it. That was fun.

The guy behind the desk was married to an employee of 30 years. Now he gets free plane rides for life. Lucky man!
