WOW just missed it.
Just missed the tornado!! I was in Oklahoma City yesterday on business. Damn.
Also anyone that thinks that the government's inept attempts at security isn't killing the airlines is sadly mistaken. What a drag they have made it to fly. Lock the doors and put marshals on the planes. It is just plain stupid.
Now for the good part, we got to fly back on one of the company planes. What a pleasure. The weather was staring to get funky in Tulsa so we decided to leave early. The plane is a Paliggio, a slick turbo prop with super plush leather interior, but I chose to sit in the copilots seat, Oh yeah baby, This is a new 14 million dollar plane that runs at .7 something mach and cruises at 35,000 feet. Got to fly (steer) the thing from 35000 down to 9000 through some rather rough turbulence. Way fun. Most enjoyable flight I have ever taken.
Just glad I didn't get to see the tornado. I was making jokes before we left. Sheesh.
