Ah, from the "Type 2" forum, it appears he'll be starting from Atlanta. A driving trip from there to Chicago doesn't bring him near you or me....

Currently, it looks like United Airways to O'Hare 1:00PM Thursday the 30th. . . IF the pilots REMEMBER to extend the flaps at take-off and the air traffic controllers are alert.

Good luck at O'Hare brother - I had a lot of issues yesterday! Flying back through there tomorrow - hopefully no more problems. Wind issues.

If the pilots drive VW buses, I shall not worry about landing in crosswinds, hell, hurricanes

I ain't IN Atlanta YET. I am nursing a recalcitrant #3 sparkplug timesert here in Spartanburg. . . so much for that End Of Itinerary Compression Test ( 120/110/100/120).

If his flight was due to leave ATL at 1pm he's probably just landing now would be my guess...Whomever fetches him from O'Hare will hopefully post an update for us...
