Default Wilbur On An Airplane

In the Chile Grand Prix thread our good friend Sean Fidler (Wilbur) makes an impassioned plea he couldn’t possibly be Wilbur because he was on an airplane with several fellow soaring pilots when the latest Wilbur post appeared. Of course such protestations assume that 1) said pilots (if they exist - doubtful) were watching his computer at all times and 2) the flight did not have WiFi (unlikely).

It appears Sean (Wilbur) was a bit too smart for his own good. The post came from IP address 75.104.66.34. A quick lookup shows that IP points to Viasat Inc. which is the WiFi provider to a number of airlines. So Sean (Wilbur) managed to place himself at the “scene of the crime.”

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday by queuing up that “leaving on an airplane tune” and imagineing Sean (Wilbur) breaking down behind the keyboard as he’s once again foiled. Fidddlleee dee, fidddleee dumb!
