Just had a lovely fifteen minute walk from my hotel to the greasy spoon to meet an online friend who coincidentally also celebrates Thanksgiving in Madison, IN for breakfast. This is what anti-fifteen minute city activists want to take from you

There are plenty of ads for airplanes that turned out to be vaporware in these old magazines but this is a first: an entire airplane COMPANY that's a ghost! I'd never heard of Freeman and seemingly neither has anyone else, but that is where Douglas was based. Furthermore...
