Airport run!
I get to make an airport pick up this morning, something I rarely seem to do. Sue is returning from a work gig in JAX and arrives at 10:05 according to the schedule. I have three different flight tracker programs to check on flight progress. I don't know how accurate they are, but I will find out. IND is IFR with 2 mi RVR, no problem, but there are t-storms around JAX so that could delay departure. Did I ever tell you about the time I sat, in the plane, on the ground at EWR for eight bloody hours! You don't want to know, t-storms are the worst when it comes to flying.
UPDATE!
According to my software, the plane was enroute to JAX from TPA, but since there were t-storms over JAX, it got diverted to OCF probably to wait it out. It finally made it to JAX and just left JAX for IND. Whew! Thank god for good tracking software!
UPDATE!
Mission accomplished!

They are at SFO or EWR or ORD, but here in Podunk they are no big deal. There are parking meters on the road in front of the terminal!Posted by: Nez at December 10, 2004 01:54 PM
