Archive for November, 2013Traffic Patrol Thanksgiving EveWednesday, November 27th, 2013 Way back when in the late 1980s as my aviation career was getting started I was flying reporters during am and pm traffic – traffic patrol. Thanksgiving eve was always exciting. The reporters were always all fired up for the evening flight. We flew a longer evening flight to cover all of the traffic. That was fun flying. There were three other aircraft flying traffic around the Baltimore belt…way and we all flew at different altitudes. I had the lowest assigned altitude. We all would look forward to Thanksgiving eve just for all of the excitement coming from the reporters onboard our aircraft. And of course accidents just added to the fun. There’d be four aircraft circling an accident. Fun, fun, fun flying traffic on Thanksgiving eve!

Dreamlifter landed at JabaraThursday, November 21st, 2013 A Boeing jet is sitting on the runway at Wichita’s Jabara Airport – and may be stuck there for awhile. A Boeing 747 LCF Dreamlifter landed at Jabara around 10:20 Wednesday night. Statements from the city of Wichtia confirm the cargo plane was heading for McConnell Air Force Base. It’s not clear if the jet landed at Jabara by mistake, or for some other reason. The F.A.A. will investigate that deviation from schedule. But radio transmissions posted online suggest the crew thought it landed at a different airport. Boeing sent a tug to Jabara Airport to turn around the jet. It had a law enforcement escort, because it had a top speed of about 13 miles per hour. The Dreamlifter is too large to takeoff from Jabara’s 6,100-foot runway. The jet reportedly is owned by Atlas Air of Purchase, New York, and had a two-person crew.
