http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/16565583/ that was my thought when they ran this story on NBC news last night. There is a "discontinuity" in the flight if you look at flightaware.com. What was the date 12/29? American Airlines 1348 What a mess, did American just forget about this plane? What would explain that situation? KC |

Here's another story of a scorpion stinging a passenger, on an American airlines flight this time, out of Miami. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/16549631/ Border Protection obviously isn't doing its job, or Al Quada is using trained arachnids to terrorize the US. |

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/16565583/ Last month I spent two days in a terminal and 9 hours on two different planes on the ramp to make it from St Louis to Phoenix in 39 hours. First day was due to weather. Second day was due totally to airline mismanagement, incompetence, and cluelessness. Our pilot finally learned that the flight was cancelled from a passenger. Airline bureaucracy can not handle changes. Pilots aren't even in the loop. -- Gene Seibel Gene & Sue's Flying Machine - http://pad39a.com/gene/ Because we fly, we envy no one. |
