JetBlue hanger at MCO

What the heck happened? I was departing 17R yesterday and noticed it was empty and had a new name. Why did you guys close up shop? Link me to a thread if I missed it.

Did it say "Live TV". That's where we install Live TVs on our new deliveries.

We own Live TV.

I didn't get a good look. We came around the corner on the roll and departed. The symbol appeared to be yellow with a white background. The hanger was open and empty. The main thing I noticed was that there was no sign with "JetBlue" on it. I seem to remember seeing that before.

 

[Caveman]

It used to have both 'JetBlue' and 'Live TV' on the hangar. There was some sort of hassle with the local airport board. They said the building could only have one brand name on it and the second one constituted advertising. So, we took the JB sign down. This is about 5th hand info, so take it with a grain of salt.

 

[AKAAB]

That's the story I heard, too. LiveTV is a brand we want to promote since we own them, and we already have JetBlue in a highly visible location with the training center.

...hanger...?

Russian – a hanger is one of the devices your KGB brothers used to “hang” the counter-revolutionary imperialist pigs on before giving them some “from Russia with love” treatment. Of course, nowadays with the new name and all they just poison them.


Btw, I think having Hitler as your avatar would've been far less offensive than Lenin. At least Hitler wasn’t responsible for AS MANY deaths as Lenin was. Truly astonishing achievement.

Common mistake. Even my local FBO uses hangEr on a sign referring to the hangAr.

Drives me nuts.

The hangar is being used to house black helicopters that the U.N. will use to remove guns from your house--after they are equiped with 36 channels of live tv and 200 XM radio channels--all delivered in crystal clear stereo!!!!!!!

So that's what the Virgin Blue 737 was doing there a few weeks ago when I saw it...

Any other connections besides TV between jetBlue and Virgin Blue? (Just wondering)

Merger planning for 2007. They've got to get the TV and paint schemes correct before the merger announcement in 2007.

Is this how it all begins!! Have you all got nothing better to do?? We simply sell a product to other companies!!

Virgin Blue operates in Australia, that's quite the merger-- at least we don't share any hubs or routes...
