Since I haven't posted a question for awhile cause I never know if my answers will be right :blink: I'll take a chance it's correct and post one now :D -

 

 

How much did Elvis pay for his jet the Lisa Marie and how much did it cost to have it remodelled to his tastes?

Edited by Jacfrost

You were right Jac :cheer:

 

The Lisa Marie initially cost Elvis $250,000, but the cost of having it remodelled to his own tastes was, according to the official Graceland book, an extra $800,000 :o Mind you, it certainly was fantastic when Elvis had customised it :cheer:

 

On the subject of planes, what was the name of the pilot of the Lisa Marie? Elvis also bought another plane which Colonel Parker used to use, called 'Hound Dog II'. What was the name of the Captain who piloted that one?

Yep, Brian :cheer: and the pilot of Hound Dog II was....... wait for it...............Milo High :rofl:

Legend has it that someone did utter the famous words "Elvis has left the building", any ideas?
  • Author
I know that one :dance: It was Horace Logan at the Louisiana Hayride and he said it cos when Elvis had finished his act, all the girls would run to the exit to try and get to him (can't blame them ;) ) and so he once said 'Elvis has left the building, he's gone' so they would sit down and watch the acts that followed :D

Aloha From Hawaii raised money for charity, how much was raised and for what charity?

 

They hoped to raise $25,000 but managed to reach $75,000 for Kui Lee Cancer Fund :cheer:

 

 

 

Which country banned one of Elvis' films due to it's theme, and what was the film?

  • Author

Flaming Star was banned in South Africa because the character portrayed by Elvis had a white father and a Native American mother and this went against SA's strict laws of racial separation.

 

Who was Elvis' road manager and where did he meet him for the first time?

He passed his driving test in 1951 when he was 16 :D He took his test in his Uncle Travis' car which was a 1940 Buick and as far as I know it was his first test :cheer:
