    There's an Airport out there Somewhere...

    took this a week ago, saturday 08 Mar. took this out of my office window, there's an airport out there somewhere.

    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    Wow, I remember that day, quite nasty.

    Great eye Matt! THanks for posting. I love those mornings!
    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.

    When I took off from JFK at 10 in the morning on the 8th it was just as bad.

    actually it was most of the morning and ran through the afternoon.

    Gordon - you flew out of JFK on the 8th? I also flew out on DL1861 to FLL that departed around 9:30 AM and it was pretty bad weather-wise. Trying to get a video of that takeoff through FL350.com...

    I did indeed. I was supposed to leave on Friday night on LA533 to SCL but our flight was cancelled because of technical issues with the aircraft and LAN ended up flying up a new aircraft and moving the departure time to 9am on Saturday. Of course with the long take off queues we didn't take off until 10:45am.
