Just to clarify, I have no axe to grind with any of the guys at Aero Trader and the "evil eye" comment was an apparently poor attempt at humor by me and not a dig against Mr. Scholl (whom I would not know if I saw him on the street) or any particular of his employees. They were busy at work and barely glanced up at us as we walked by. And also to clarify, the photo was shot from outside the hangar doors. I did not, have not, and would not enter somebody else's hangar without being invited to do so.

My experiences at Aero Trader have always been positive...Carl and Tony both have let this hillbilly roam freely around the back lot and all the hangars at Chino, and at the Borrego Springs yard....always with my Nikon hanging from it's strap.

As with the looks you get from the employee's there...just think about how many of us get the cold chills , to have the chance to check out all the neat things that have been collected by AT, and how many folks do wonder over there without an invite, to look things over...and all the folks that are either doing business with AT, or are visiting Carl and Tony for potential work...and they are looking over the facilities where they are going to be spending a couple of dollars....the employees there have no idea who you are, and I would say, are just trying to do their job and get a little peeved with time consuming questions....after all, they are there 5 days a week, 8+ hours a day, working.....

If you ever met me, you'd understand why the WallMart escourts me around their stores! Carl and Tony, and the employees I've met, have been nothing but great to me...I think if I was working there, I'd be like a junkyard dog, growling at anyone who got near.
