• flight delays

    From JIM WELLER@1:123/140 to DALE SHIPP on Sunday, September 23, 2018 17:04:00

    Quoting Dale Shipp to Michael Loo <=-

    Lilli's plane had a birdstrike

    Delayed a couple of hours is much better than landing in the Hudson
    river in NYC.

    Roslind's northern flights are a grand circle that goes from
    Yellowknife, to Kugluktuk, Cambridge Bay, Goa Haven, Taloyoak and
    Kugaaruk on even numbered days and in the opposite direction on odd
    numbered days. The Route is served by 2 regional airlines who make 3
    flights a week each on alternate days. During the winter the flights
    are on time about just 60% of time due to weather conditions. $0%
    are delayed or cancelled. A lot of the time they simply fly over one
    or more towns and can therefore be early as well. She was once hung
    up for four days as a plane went mechanical on day 1, the weather
    was horrible in her community on the next day and the flight on day
    3 was overbooked by far because of the backup.

    Kugluktuk and Cambridge Bay airports can take 737 jets but the other
    three places are limited to Dash 8 prop service which is both slow
    and noisy.

    More bijou variations to help you use up your aging Chartreuse. What
    other ancient spirits do you have on hand that need to be dealt
    with?
