Would you do anything for the community?

Say you were to win powerball or the lottery (50 million).

Would you do anything for specific members or friends in the AH community?

Me...I think I would take 100k out of the 50 million, and give out twenty five, $5,000 dollar scholarships to members of the community to get their private pilots license.


Would anyone else do anything like this, if you came over this insanse sum of money over night?

Maybe give you $5K for a math tutor?

[cav58d]

Worst part is, I edited it before posting because my math was off the first time.  lmao

PPL idea is grand, I'll commit to something like that.  I'll ask wifey to go get a ticket now.

I know. When I clicked "quote", I got a different post with a different math error! Took me a second or two to realize I caught it exactly when you edited it, but that you still had an error.

Everybody has days like that. Sometimes it seems like I have them every day.

We have a lot of pilots in our squad... I'd probably by a 'community' flugwerks 190a8 and pass it around at reunions.  Then I'd Buy Hitech a bottle of scotch and a bottle of aspirin for the headache or two I have given the boy on the BBS.

I would be willing to pay for a LARGE convention center, and charter say 10-12 757's and have them go to the large hub cities Chicago, Baltimore, New york, LA and the like to fly in subscribing AHII players for the largest AHII convention EVER. All you would have to do is get to one of the planes. Might even send a few over seas so for our players around the world can show up.

Hotel rooms are on you guys though:rofl

It would be way easier and cheaper to give all applicants free first class tickets to and from the con city and hotel rooms and meals at the con city.

If I won, I'd buy a B-25 and fly it around to airshows where you guys could slobber over it.  

[Dichotomy]

Cav.. Frankly I'd buy my in game friends a good gaming rig with CH gear and start a foundation that gave a college scholarship to the younger players based on gpa and a competition held each year.  I figure the rigs would set me back about 100k and the scholarship could be set up with an amount where the interest would pay for a 4 year ride to most state schools.  

This would be done anonymously as I wouldn't want to be treated any different because of my financial status than I am today.  I'd prefer to be treated as one of the guys and not some rich dude that has a philanthropic personality.

[Chairboy]

Even better, do the PPL trick anonymously.

Set up an escrow, have a shade account announce it and work through HTC to correlate real folks w/ handles on the BBS.

[FiLtH]

Well, if I still had interest at AH at that point, I'd make an offer for HTC that they couldnt refuse. Then I'd hire on more people. I'd make the game the way I wanted it.

[midnight Target]

I'd buy a camera and send you all pictures of my new lifelong vacation trip.
