At some point in the near past, someone either here or on another BBS asked
what CGX looked like now. Here's how it looked in May of 2006.

We could fly all over downtown at 2000 feet without talking to anyone, and as we know even we try to talk to someone we can't...and a certain mayor and his wife live just south of the former CGX. We oughtta arrange an flying event and make sure the press knows the facts. The mayoral election is in early February.

February 27th!

I think we need to organize a flight of small airplanes, joining up at KENW, flying down the lakeshore in succession, landing at KGYY with news crews informed and waiting. Daley pulled the Meigs stunt only a week after the last election, knowing it wouldn't be popular... And it wasn't, even among non-pilots.

We need to remind everyone of that outrage. I'm sure the Friends of Meigs and the opposing mayoral candidates would be more than willing to help!
