j/k, that makes me miss flying. Clear blue and a million gets old! But I have friends that call me while they are on 4-5 hr layovers somewhere or being extended and it reminds me of the bad crap too.

I second that!

You got that right. Had that approach one afternoon and after clearing the rwy, I looked around and saw a 73 in what looked like at least a 60 degree bank turning short final.

the porta potty that managed to blow all the way over to the lineup for 29 and hit and dented a 737 wing was priceless. The 73 had to gate return
