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

Ha, must have been right behind you, saw the MD11 on the go too. And the plane on the runway "Way to go Jazz!".
