A Quest Begins

My sincere hope is that it does not turn out to be quixotic, simply because I am not working for a major network or newspaper. The last Speedbird run will be made on October 24, and I will be writing about it both here and elsewhere. To facilitate such, I have been working to get in contact with the right person at British Airways to try to this final Concorde flight. After a call to London this morning, I was given a contact in New York and have spoken with that nice gentleman. The net result is that I have just sent a detailed proposal letter to him, stating my qualifications and background, what sales I have, and where I have placed proposals for coverage. Now the wait begins. The wait on hearing back from British Airways to see if I can get on the flight. The wait to hear back from some of the publications and such to see if they will buy the article or if I need to pitch it to a competitor. The wait to hear back from others that I am pitching coverage to as well. My goal is to provide coverage on television, radio, magazine, newspaper, and as many flavors of online as possible. We will see what happens. Please keep your fingers crossed for me on this.
