| 0:16.2 | Hello and welcome to episode 227 of Avtoc. I am Ian Petchenik here as always with... Jason Erbino, it's Ian, how's it going? It's going well Jason, how are you sir? |
| 0:20.8 | I'm good, I'm temporarily home in between bouts of being in |
| 0:25.0 | Dallas, Virginia, so I'm enjoying being home with my actual microphone and not on |
| 0:30.1 | hotel Wi-Fi Virgin. |
| 0:31.4 | Everything's going according to... on hotel Wi-Fi, Virgin. |
| 0:35.0 | Everything's going according to plan. But you made it home. |
| 0:37.0 | I don't want to call it surprisingly, but close-up calls you could make it without |
| 0:41.0 | derailing travel plans entirely. |
| 0:43.4 | Yes, I refer to the Dulles-Laguardia route as the cursed route because it is frustratingly |
| 0:50.1 | short, it's only like 500 something miles, but it is incredibly prone to lengthy delays and very last minute |
| 0:58.3 | cancellations. And on this occasion, I was originally booked on the 530 flight and said you know what I'm done at the office today |
| 1:05.3 | I'm gonna fly standby on the 435 flight and it was a very good decision because we took off we just beat storms in Dallas, we landed at LaGuardia, we blocked |
| 1:16.2 | into the gate 17 minutes early. That was unprecedented for that flight, but less than an hour later, I had a coworker who I was supposed to be flying with at first, but I sorry I abandoned her. |
| 1:30.1 | Sorry Lisa. |
| 1:31.1 | When they got into LaGuardia a mere 60 minutes later they waited |
| 1:36.2 | over three hours on the ground for a gate at LaGuardia as the entire airport just |
| 1:42.1 | totally devolved into chaos in less than an hour it was |
| 1:46.9 | quite something I paid for it our little Mesa E-175 had an inoperable APU which meant no air conditioning while on the ground |
| 1:56.4 | Which is not something you want to hear when it is 97 degrees out or about 40 degrees Celsius and I'm pretty sure 10,000% humidity. But given the trade-off, I would do it again in a heartbeat. |
| 2:08.6 | Somebody who was following along kind of watching how things were devolving said you know it's bad when one of the |
| 2:15.6 | country's major airports which only has two runways is using one of them as an |
| 2:20.2 | aircraft storage facility rather than an active runway. |
