[A/S] Hello From Jackson Center

[Dick Martin <suburbandvr@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am killing time sitting in the Airstream Service Center so I thought I would 
pass on some information.  

Right now the place is full of "suits" including some with concealed firearms.  
An Ohio senator and the Secretary Of the Interior are here for for a tour of 
the Airstream facility.  

The after-fire rebuild is continuing and the service area looks really nice.  
It looks like most of the big items are completed.  Many material storage units 
are still around and many construction folks are still working.  The interior 
and exterior painting is almost completed.  

Two bits of information that I have not heard of before.  Forgive me if they 
have previously been reported on the list.  Airstream has started doing a disk 
brake conversion for trailers.  Hydraulic disk brakes are added along with an 
electric controlled hydraulic pump for the disks.  Prices run from $1,612 to 
$6,931 depending on brake size and number of axles.  This process is one of the 
items available under the winter service discount program of 15% on labor and 
10% on parts.

I have always been courious about the price and public availability of the 
Airstream trailer desk/counter.  The price list is posted in the service 
center.
 Bambi bar and desk - $4,992
      with refrigerator - $5,269
refrigerator and keg - $6,931
