Jason, if you can use them, go for it....I have been advised that we should "be cautious" till we know exactly how hard this is gonna hit us...In other words, she doesn't think it's a good idea...and I don't need ot get in trouble with the finance commitee....

Thanks, the deal is done ! I understand cautious, and I should practice it more. My wife quit to stay at home with our daughter 2 years ago. Still, can't pass up a good deal for something I need....

This picture says it all. Two Global Expresses and a G-550 on their tails. The Global in the foreground is also apparently severely damaged. That is $200m+ of hardware, not including the hangar. Thinking about a mobile asset relocation plan prior to heavy weather? There is 30"+ on the ground now and 10-20" more forecast by Wednesday!

It looks like the engineering company and steel provider better be calling their insurance providers. That is a pretty new facility and I suspect the commercial construction building code for snow loads are designed for 30" of wet stuff, even in Virginia.
