GRACE TWITE SCANTLIN 1961 - 1965 FLIGHT ATTENDANT GSW MKC Everyone gathered in front of the beautiful water fall in the hotel lobby for a group picture. Those who had started the party early and were unable to stand on their own were wedged into the middle of the group so they were supported by the crowd F/A's who attended (years of service) Jo Delle (Davidson) Burwell ('79 - '82) Lisa (Sachetta) Ison ('77 - '85) Sue (Judd) Evans ('64 - '85) Lori (Espinoza) Day ('77 - '85) Cindy Hady ('74 - '85) Debbie (Vitera) Baldwin Lorraine Williams Barb Womack ('70 - '86) Jenny Chiddix ('74 - '85) Judy (Saladino) Sellmeyer Letha (Luster) Weldon-Barnthouse ('61 -'85) Laura (Jones) Colvin ('63 - '68) Deanna (Burleigh) Larson ('64 - '68) Gwen Mahler ('74 - Present) Ann (Freese) Bozarth Beth (Taylor) Stein ('76 - '86) Sally Rimer ('70 - Present) Sharlene Hall ('70 - Present) Barb Carroll ('69 - '75) Randy Stoddard ('79 - '84) Gracie Scantlin ('60 - '65) Liz Lane Sue (Cahill) Gilmore Dee (Patton) McGee Carol (Shanklin) Neff Barbara Wechsler Patty Benton ('70 - Present) -Posted at Phil Stalling 2004 reunion website KANSAS CITY LAYOVER 2007 BEST YET!! MAY 18 - 20, 2007 The layover committee checked into the Hilton - Kansas City Airport on Thursday and began preparations for the 2007 Kansas City Flight Crew Reunion/Layover. The first to show up on Friday was Bob Stone (FAL Pilot 1977-1986) who checked into the hotel at 9:30 am in time to go to breakfast with the layover committee. And, the party was on!!! By Friday evening, a good group of FLamily had checked in and we were enjoying drinks and hors d'oeuvres in the lobby/bar area. Sometime around 9 pm the party moved to the "Crew" room upstairs for more drinks, pizza, more stories and laughs. Saturday began with breakfast at 10, although I found Jim Appleby holding court with a small group in the "Crew" room about 8:30 that morning, already back at telling each other lies and war stories. By 3 Saturday afternoon, the party was in full swing again. The evening was filled with much laughter and picture taking. And, thanks to JoDelle and Laura, two huge barrels of KFC showed up. Before the evening was over we were joined in the "Crew" room by layover crews from the "new" Frontier, Midwest, American and Chautauqua Airlines …. They could not believe that after 21 years the "Old" Frontier was still so much a family and still having the time of their lives together. I think I can safely say that we did show them what an airline layover/party should be!!!! Sunday morning saw us in the restaurant for breakfast at 10 … and then hugs, kisses, hand shakes and "good-by until next year". This was probably our smallest attendance for the KC Reunion/Layover...BUT, most everyone agrees that it was probably our BEST!!!! Those attending included: Bob Stone, Steve Tidler, Jim Appleby, Laura (Jones) Colvin, Gerrie Donaldson, Lanette Duncan, Howard Logan, John Green, Mike Gadow, Rusty Lambert, "Jack" Frost, JoDelle (Davidson) Burwell, Ken Larason, Tom Hollister, Neil Miller, Terry Calkins, Dan & Grace Scantlin, B. J. Blackerby , Barb Carroll, Lisa Sachetta, Carl Lorenzen, Sue (Cahill) von Geyso, Frank von Geyso, Ron Gallop, Claudia (Morersch) Roach and Phil Stallings. The Committee - JoDelle Burwell, Lisa Sachetta, Laura Colvin, Steve Tidler and Phil Stallings - would like to thank everyone who attended and helped make this another successful reunion/layover. A special Thank You to John Green for donating the FAL patches to be handed out to everyone in attendance.
