Speaking of comedy, where do you fly that "many pilots jokingly refer to the flights as a space launch"?

And socially capable Denverites take great offense at being associated with the Colorado School for Wayward Boys!

Haven’t used Stapleton in 30 years…. And the academy is a bit south of there, Chief.

You probably have to read back to pipeman’s post to understand the context. It was just a ridiculous reply to calling our flights space launches due to USAFA being in Denver. Both of which also aren’t real.

The “space launch” reference has been referring these forums many times. It’s about the endless briefings and meeting in a special place ahead of time despite doing a FL turn. I’m not the only person to have used the term space launch before. Get a grip.
