Rolling is so much less dangerous than tumbling |
Dani flew back to JFK tonight after our week in the UK and Slovenia for Rufus’s wedding (which was phenomenal, by the way, but since Pete wasn’t in attendance we don’t have photos online yet). I declined the role of Best Man for this one on the basis that I didn’t know if I would be able to attend, and in the end it worked out brilliantly with fantastic speeches from the bride’s pater, and both Cartwright Juniors.
Enough digressing. Today I was introduced to a whole new world of air traffic control. Dani was diverted to Dulles. JFK is under what’s apparently called WX: SWAP. Search that on Google and you don’t get much useful info. But I then stumbled across the FAA’s glossary page. It means JFK’s been slammed by crazy-ass flood-dumping storms (WX) and that a plan has been put in place to work around that (SWAP).
At least it’s not EMERG SPO. And at least she’s suffering in a comfortable upper-deck bed with champers on tap.
I hope our windows were closed. I’m still too traumatised to write up what happened when I last came back from Denver… There aren’t FAA codes to cover that one.
