Lol. Happy coincidence I think. An initial hold over Tampa area, then swap turn directions for weather then down to rsw because it looked like the weather would clear then back up to Tampa for the divert. Wouldn't want to be on that flight, 8 hour duration.

I wouldn't have wanted to be up front looking at the fuel gauge...:eek:

Do you JB guys usually carry that much extra fuel?

Flightaware has been know to post some interesting TO and landing times and that last line has them going to find Flight 19

I think that time is the total time including the divert to Tampa and subsequent flight to finish as planned in lauderdale.
