The netherworld of flight

The BTB has slipped into the ether of the CLT TYS IAD Triangle. No radio or communications equipment can penetrate this void, at least while the cabin doors are closed. This despite the fact that her vessel remains safely parked on a taxi-way at Charlotte-Douglas, delayed by thunderstorms over Dulles (which, from my Reston vantage point, appear to be more fable than fact).

Nuh uh! There was a storm somewhere. That plane was bumping and shaking more wildly than the people on Sweatin' to the Oldies.

Although the turbulence and delay had me totally FREAKED OUT (as did the limited snack selection...no vanilla cookies, what?), I was pleased to have so much uninterrupted reading time that I have been able to finish HPATHBP.
