No kidding... I'm most of the time the first guy to call uncle, but this one was a gray area and we were the first to get bit.
The ASA flight behind us on that first attempt, as well as another on the second go at it (when all of us were pulling out and going to wait) decided to go take a look. Guess what happened to them?
"yeah we got a 20 or 30 knot loss in airspeed."
No shame in calling uncle!
