MARSHALL DAKE 1964 - 1986 STATION AGENT TBN JAC SGF Jake, One funny ? story that happened in SGF. Try topping this! When I was City Manager in Springfied Missouri (SGF) we had boarded passengers and all cargo when I passenger realized his luggage was incorrectly checked. He called this to the attention of the attention of the agent in the galley (Bill Mertens) and Bill had Ed Ciskowski and Don Naile check the rear compartment and correct the tag. Not realizing there were two agents in the aft compartment, both engines running, the captain advised the agent on the ear phones he had an aft cargo light. The agent laid down his phones and proceeded to shut the cargo door - not realizing two agents were inside. He returned to the front of the aircraft and dispatched the flight. That is when sheer panic began for Ed and Don. They began pounding on the bottom of the floor and one of the 3 flight attendanats heard the noise and reported it to the captain. He told here it was the tires hitting bumps in the ramp and not to worry. Normally we loaded the aircraft so ICT did not have to work the aft cargo. However, on this particular day Marshall Dake had lost his I. D. badge and believed it was in the aft cargo compartment. He called ICT and asked them to check for it. Well.....imagine what happened when four feet came flying out of the aft compartment when the door was opened. Actually they were not missed until one of them called and asked one of the agents to call his wife and let her know he would be late getting home. The rest I want to forget...letters to FAA, etc. -Sam Jones (3/16/04) M G DAKE Station agent seniority date of 3/7/66, emp# 01721, on the 1/1/86 FL/ALEA seniority list. He lost seniority someway because the CN Skywriter article dated Jun 1964 shows him hiring on at TBN. -Jake Lamkins (5/13/09) Marshall G Dake 73 Pleasant Hope, MO Willard, MO Springfield, MO Brookline Station, MO Aldrich, MO - Ella Mae Dake Larry A Dake Michael G Dake Mike G Dake Sherri Lynn Dake Jordan M Dake Lindsey N Dake Jennifer M Dake Whitney L Dake Cheryl Ann Dake -Intelius.com (5/14/09) Old Pictures taken at TBN Airport 3.
