I was based at LAX with a major airline for many years. In the early
days knowing the peaks and valleys I used to fly a light aircraft in there when our company would let us park at the hangar. Then, traffic increased and one day I was almost blown over in an Arrow by a Continental 727 who blasted the power around the corner taking 25L for takeoff even though the tower told him to be careful. It's too easy to end up in a nasty situation like that at one of these major airports. Chip Hermes wrote: Why not? Who do they think they are? I've flown light aircraft at peak hours (both VFR and IFR) into DFW, LAX, IAH, etc, all of which are significantly busier than CVG and it was a breeze. Chip P.S. everyone on airnav commenting about CVG seems to be flying a 172 or equiv and seems to think it was a great experience. |
