	N87RM (cn 39) Fourteen years ago, I took a trip to Steamboat Springs Colorado just for a chance to fly on a four engined propliner. The small fleet of Dash 7's operated by Continental Express out of (now closed) Denver Stapleton were soon to be retired and I didn't want to miss my chance. This was the actual aircraft I flew on.

	N214AU / N7645U (cn 20214) Queuing up for departure at the old Stapleton airport in Denver. This was during the early days of the rebirth of Frontier Airlines, and at the time I think they only had two aircraft. I remember departing from Stapleton many times during my days as a flight attendant, and the three things I remember most were the unbelievably long takeoff rolls, magpies, and the prairie dog colonies!

	N214AU (cn 20214) Everything in this photo long since gone, this is one of my favorite shots from one of my visits to Stapleton, and it pretty well summed up what it meant to be in the Mile High City in the Rocky Mountains. 1993

	N681MA (cn 24376) I took this shot back in 1993 when I was still a flight attendant, and several sharp eyed observers have helped me identify it as Denver Stapleton. Originally EC-238 with Air Europa, this 737 has since gone on to fly with BRA Transportes Aereos of Brazil. 1993

	N87RM (cn 39) This is a rare photo taken at Denver Stapleton of this aircraft in the current Continental colors. I took this photo as I was about to board this aircraft on a short trip to Steamboat Springs. My incentive for the trip was not for skiing, it was only to be able to fly on a four-propellered aircraft! I enjoyed it very much, and after a two night stay, flew back to Stapleton and from there returned to Cleveland. This aircraft is still flying today as C-GLOL for Voyageur Airways. Spring 1994
