Description: Here's Part 2 of an episode of Sorting It Out on WMAQ Channel 5. Sorting It Out was a locally produced news magazine type show that featured interesting people and events around Chicagoland. It starred Bob Smith and a pre-Cheers Shelley Long, who at this point was still mostly known for her work in Homemakers furniture commercials.
This part features a look at a family with three generations of pilots - George Priester (grandfather), Charlie Priester (father), and young G.J. Priester (the son). The family also owned (owns?) Paulwaukee Airport.
(Unfortunately, all of the commercial breaks and a few bits of the show were cut out of the original recording)
This aired on local Chicago TV on Saturday, November 27th 1976 during the 6 to 6:30pm timeframe.
