    I remember seeing the Jordanian state L1011 at the airport in Rochester, MN back in mid 90s.
    They flew the whole family over and took over a wing of the hospital when someone comes in for medical work, according to my Mayo buddy. Don't know if that is still the case

    He would bring the family and entourage to Jackson Hole to ski off and on in the 90s. His body guards could not ski so he enlisted some of the JH Ski Patrol to ski with the family. I worked for Rossignol Ski Co. at the time and would do private demos for him.

    The Kardex of King Husseins car mentions a speed pilot.
    Was this the Halda Speed Pilot or was it a special speed pilot of Porsche?

    That speed pilot is newer than 65, so that model would not have been in the car when new.
