    ATC at Islip puts up with a lot of crap.

    from this morning's Newsday....


    A marauding animal - most likely a raccoon - left feces on crucial equipment in the control tower of Long Island MacArthur Airport in Islip early yesterday, forcing air traffic controllers to guide planes from the ground in an emergency procedure that hasn't been used in decades.

    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    The three most common expressions in aviation are, "Why is it doing that?", "Where are we?" and "Oh Crap".

    But controllers spent 2 1/2 hours landing planes and clearing them for takeoff with only a partial view of the runway,
    and that was what?? 1 SW arrival, 2 Cessnas, 1 helicopter???? lol Its a joke!! calm down people who love ISP hehehehe. Shows you how almost abandoned ISP is, a racoon started calling the tower its home!!! lol hahahahahahaa

    thats just hilarious.... wonder if the last guy out the night before was the one to clean the **** up.
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.
