Pimpin' in the square plane....

Well yesterday, as I neared my planned packing and moving to Atlanta....the phone rang....it was my old employer whom I still work part time for in the Shorts 330/360 and Falcon 20. Well they were desperate to get me on an airplane to Milwaukee, WI to go pick up a Shorts 330 (The sexy beast depicted below), fly it to Marion, IL, then fly it to Wilmington, OH on a scheduled DHL run. A long night.

Being the nice guy that I am (contrary to poular belief) I accepted and they bought me a ticket from Myrtle Beach to Milwaukee on United. I threw a bag together and headed for the airport. Sure enough, when a last-minute one way ticket is bought, I get selected for extra-TSA bullshit at the security checkpoint. After my bag has completed it's raping....I continued on to the gate. Finally arrived at Mili-Wau-Kay (Algonquin for..."The Good Land") about an hour late after fantabulous ground delays at O'Hare. Never stopped walking...van was waiting for me...hopped on the airplane and off we went on a 2-hour trip to Marion. (Yes, flying the length of Illinois in a Shorts takes 2 hours....stop laughing...STOP LAUGHING!)

Once we arrive in Marion we quick turn and fly to Wilmington...another One hour 45 minute journey. Then my day is done....now, here I sit in scenic Wilmington, Ohio waiting for some other broke-ass plane to get fixed so I can fly it back to Marion and go home.

Good Times...
