Messing with Connie will not usually end well !

If I told you about one of the Kattila Air flights there would be a knock on my door shortly. Mr. Sutton we are from the CIA we need to talk.

Yep, Connie had the chassis company that used to build his cars tahat he later bought.
build special shipping frames to secure the caskets for the job.
I would love Connie to publish a book of his life. There're got to be stories that would make us laugh & cry.

Interesting how a man can have a reputation for being so tough but also have a heart of gold. How many injured Nhra drivers and their families has he flown?

For any that didn't know, Chris Wilt is a Kallita family member. So he's going to know better than anyone about the family.

I think some of us have forgotten that when 911 happened the only planes left flying were Air Force one, its fighter escorts and a Kalitta Air 747. Says a lot about “being connected”. Some other times make you go WOW are - Let's not forget that during the 1991 Gulf War, Kalitta Air flew over 600 cargo missions for the U.S. military. Resulting in Connie’s recognition at the White House from President George H.W. Bush. In 2018 a Boeing 737 from Kalitta Charters was used to retrieve diplomatic personnel from Moscow. Again in 2024, Kalitta Air was involved in transporting weapons from the US to Israel. Don’t mess with Connie! I was one of the people at the hotel in Indy when the desk clerk refused to tell Connie what rooms his team was in. But that is an entirely different story. THANK YOU Connie for all you have done and continue to do!
