Well I'd see why you'd think I might be incog but I'm not. Denver is pretty big as far as aviation goes. There are 4 big airports in the area which all handle lots of general aviation traffic: Centennial (mine), Denver International, Rocky Mountain Metro, Front Range. There's also an Air Force base in Denver. At my airport alone (Centennial) there are 4 fixed-based operators which compete. If he's into aviation it'd make sense for him to work the line, I have so many friends / co-workers who started working at airports whilst studying to be a pilot or other related aviation job. It's a great way to make connections. I myself am working on my private pilot licence, I have a checkride coming up next week. I'm kinda nervous but I've been a pretty good student. We'll see.
I hope for incog that he doesn't work at Denver International though. Those guys get paid shit for a relatively crappy job (just throwing bags into an airbus must be crappy). I have the best job honestly. My company gets military contracts so we get a lot of Navy aircraft (that don't go to Air Force base), as well as Army, Marine Corps and Air Force (when Buckley gets too crowded). As far as general aviation we also get a huge volume of piston aircraft and business jets. We don't get airliners here but I do fuel charter companys (on demand operations rather than regular operations, basically). Centennial also has a few warbirds, only yesterday I had the pleasure of fueling a P51 Mustang. Centennial is one of most affluent general aviation airfields in the nation.
My job is really fun honestly and the money is good. Beats working at a desk or in a supermarket or in a food chain.

I passed. Thank all things holy. The weather literally cleared up in time for my ride. Examiner got to fly a Learjet before my exam, so was in a good mood. He only asked questions to which the answer was known to me.
Lucked out. My inflight performance was worse than I know I can be. A pass is a pass. fuck. yes.

Plane is supposed to leave on the 11th and I work 10 hours that day. For once there's a celebrity whose name I recognized.
(in the background is Greg Norman's gulfstream, you can recognize the shark. I had no idea who he was but I'm told he's a big golfer)

I'll absolutely be able to talk to the crew but getting a selfie with the lady herself would be challengesome. especially since the reason she's in Denver (of all places) in the first place is for court. doubt she'd be in the mood

Dassault Falcon 900! It's French!
It's easy to service, easy to fuel, looks good, spacious cabin, etc. It's a damn fine jet.
New GV would be more than $50M I think, not sure for certain.
This job is like the epitome of trickle-down economics but somehow I don't mind a bit.
