Stuck at ORD waiting for a commuter jet to CLE. Hopefully in time to get sushi w/ Marty and Annie and TimTim.
Vehicle from SFO was tail# N213UA. Also 'spotted' 199, 665 from same fleet (the former a B74, latter a B73 or something like that).
QOTD: tower - "united 134 out of 3000 clear for visual 22 right.. Wait, let me try that again 134 clear out of 3000 visual to *27* right, sorry.." (Beat) 1st officer "134 tower wilco VFR"..
[edit: there was a bit more, but the blackberry only allows a certain amount of text to be entered. the point was, are rear landing gear hit about half a second later. oh how i love ATC gaffes!]
[editedit: apparantly N199UA is also internet.famous (i just plugged the tail number into alnet and the faa website, but google has it listed as an example tail number for registration searches; thereby making it one of the most famous tail numbers on google.]
( and of course.. )
