New Blog Header




Did you notice my new blog header?


Thanks to Stef. Great job!


And Shannon, I paid for my header. And well worth the money!




I flew from Oscoda, MI to Dover, Delaware yesterday. Again I don't know how long I will be here.


But, I do know I go home Friday!!!!!!


As of today I have been gone 27 days. All because I wanted to go to Jon and Christy Gunther's wedding on the 7th of July. Yes they got married on 7/7/07 @ 7 pm.


These are the pictures for today. Susan and Vicki Gunther @ the Wedding. And of course the Happy couple!

Still in Oscoda

The motel we were staying at in Oscoda, MI had me in the Honeymoon Suite. All other rooms had internet but this one. Guess they figure if your in the Honeymoon Suite you won't need internet service LOL!!!!!
We had to move to a different motel for today and tomorrow. Nothing much happening.
We were able to bar-b-q on the beach of Lake Herron the last 2 nights.
New blog header coming soon....

Sitting in Newark...


Got into Newark last night. I was supposed to lake another airplane from here to Oscoda , Michigan this afternoon, but the trip is delayed until tomorrow afternoon. Seems like the plane is broke in Brussels, Belgian.

They are waiting for some parts. Scheduling said that they sent me a fax with the changes, but as usual the Holiday Inn here at the Newark airport as yet given me the fax. And that was 4 hours ago!

Just a taste of what I go through each day , each week, each month, each year. Every time I go back to work I keep thinking that things have changed....

But they don't.....

Michigan


Happy birthday to my grandson, Bradley Franklin Linthicum!

Brad is 4 years old today!

Got into Oscoda, Michigan at 6:30 am this morning. Then we drove the 3 plus hours down to Detroit.

Again, don't know what we do next. Scheduling still trying to figure it out. Most likely we will comercial back to New York tomorrow.

Later....

New York, New York...


Got into Newark this morning. Called scheduling and they sent a limo to pick me up and take me to JFK. Got here at JFK about noon and promptly went to bed. We had flown all night LAX to EWR (Newark).

Leave at midnight for Oscoda, Michigan. We have a maintenance base there.

As of right now I don't know how long I will be there.

Goodbye Diamond Head...


Well, we left Hawaii for who know's how long. Next stop, Hilo. We took an engine for US Airways B757. Then off to LA.

I leave for Newark at 1:00am in the morning.

Was not told of the trip to Newark until we had landed at LAX Wednesday midnight. Then I was told about the trip to Newark and that it was leaving at 7:00 am Friday. After I woke up at 9:00 am Thursday and called scheduling, they hurriedly informed me that they had changed my departure time to 1:00 am local on Friday. Oh well, just another day at Kalitta Air.
