  1. NOTAM used to stand for “Notice to Airmen.” But the word “airmen” was deemed insufficiently inclusive, so it was changed to “Notice to Air Missions.”

  2. Someone, somewhere will try to pin this on Rogers because nothing should ever break or go down.

    Probably a similar thing. Software upgrade gone wrong.

  3. Me: What a beautiful and great opportunity to teach everyone how things work and give everyone a great opportunity to be friendly and just relax at the great airport

    1. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Not when you’re worn out, elderly, have a passle of kids or health issues or have to get back to work or starting a paid-up front vacation, going to a wedding, or funeral or a sick family member at home and many other reasons.

    1. @Master Sonogashira there’s a million mile gap between believing only what you are told and believing any Jan 6 stuff
