I realize it's not that funny, but I just wanted to acknowledge my own efforts to subtly belittle Edmonton in casual industry business conversations. It's the little things like that you can do to keep them in their place beneath the superior race of Albertans (aka Calgarians).
I was lucky enough to fly into the city centre airport a couple of times. Once on my own with a friend for a day trip in the Mighty Cessna 172, and another time in a Jetstream 31.
