Dear Policia,

I appreciate the help. We can now expand our market to meet their old customers needs. I will be able to grow our business with the extra income. Perhaps an additional body guard and I can put my smugglers on a healthcare plan.

Gracias
Rico

Please post the video of last night’s great “Flight for Life” story about pilots transferring blood around the state (March 4th), as I would like to take it national. Please advise. Greg Brown, Columnist, Aircraft Owners & Pilots Association

Comment on Stranded Rafters Rescued in Grand Canyon by Eric Albert

This is a perfect example of professional service, critical thinking, and execution. Haven done the tip in 2008, we experienced the same issue with one of our 18 footers. It certainly is easy to get lax after passing the ‘big hole’ on Crystal which gives a very false sense of security. You really need to travel far right or far left …RIGHT AWAY! So haven gone through the same experience, I can admire the difficulty for the crews, as well as the rescuers. If anyone ever complains about the “process” or the “cost”, this is what your money goes too! The crews at the NPS are by far the best in the world at what they do. I am a firefighter, flight paramedic, and swiftwater rescue instructor, and I tip my hat off to those who dedicate their energies into providing a safe experience for the travelers of the Canyon! You guys and gals have a thankless job, as do I and reading stories like these only affirm the appreciation for your service and your dedication to the job. Heck, it’s the best job in the world right? Kudos to the NPS, and to the trip leader in making the call for assistance. Knowing what you can and cannot do is really the challenge, so good on ya. Cheers, Eric Albert Red Deer, Alberta Canada.

This may be my dream job. I have a BS in Zoo Science, and have been training dogs for years in Phoenix. Could you help me find contact information for the Wild animal Park near Williams? I’ve searched the Internet, and only came up with your article. Thank you, Katie

Comment on Flagstaff Officially Deemed Train Quiet Zone by Maveth

Bunch of freakin’ crybabies. I grew up next to train tracks — it’s a safety thing. If you don’t like the noise, move your whiny little butts out. (This post has been edited to meet forum standards)

Comment on Train Horn Quiet Zone Event on Tuesday by J.T.

The days when the railroad was the main mode of transportation are over, and this is a reflection of how insignificant they have become. I don’t think anyone would have a problem with them sounding their horns at a normal volume (sub 40 decibals) and during daytime hours only, but railroads refuse to negotiate on the noise levels, and ridiculously insist that it is for public safety. Please – the only reason they sound their horns so loudly is to let everyone know they are there in an attempt to remain relevant. If someone is stupid enough to get hit by a train moving at 3mph, horn or no horn, gates or no gates, they probably deserve it. The underlying reason that cities have to spend so much money on these quiet zones is that the railroads refuse to budge on the horn volume levels. So don’t blame the city, blame the railroad company.

Im not holding my breath… I was stopped at the tracks downtown just an hour ago and the train horn was in full use. I have no doubt that one side of this (that hasn’t been heard) comes from the train conductors who wont comply with the new order… then what?
