My last flight was years ago, and it was following my honorable discharge from the good ol' US Navy. It was the greatest flight ever.

Yah...last Thursday (July 3rd) on United. Myself, the Mrs. and step-daughter were supposed to fly OKC-DEN-ABQ. The plane landed in OKC that was to take us to DEN...then the pilots decided that engine #1 needed a new fuel filter (it had apparently gone past due for replacement enroute from DEN) at OKC. The problem was that there was no replacement part here...sooooo, they had to fly in a replacement part in from DEN on another flight. We got to DEN about 3 hours late and missed our connection to ABQ. Soooo, United had to put us up at the Marriott in Denver for the night and flew us out to Durango the next morning (since we were driving to Moab, Utah anyways).

Other than that, no...not really, just a few delays here and there of 15-30 minutes.

I just missed out on Nam. It was winding down about the time I got out of high school. I still get angry thinking about how you guys weren't treated like heros when you came home. I admire you and everyone that has served or is serving his country.

I've also flown a lot recently with no problems. However, all those flights have been on Southwest and none of those flights have been on the east coast.

If you're lookin' for a change of pace, try muttering to yourself while inline and then throwing yourself on the floor when authorities close in. Reach inside your clothing at every opportunity. You may hit the 10,000,000 lotto... lawyer fee's excluded. ;)

I am sorry.

I meant to say everyone that has served or is serving his or HER country.
