Donny.....for about 3 seconds you had me spitting coffee all over my computer immediately followed by a dash out the front door to look in the direction of DFW..........then I saw A380 and fire and knew it was the new firefighting deal.
Now that was a good lead-in sentence! No coffee spitting like Toby, but JEEEEEZ, that was eye-catching. Sorry I can only give it one thumbs up. Great article.
DFW and my local firefighting organization reminds me of the Coast Guard motto Semper Paratus. Thanx Donny

Haha thanks guys! As a marketing guy at FlightAware, my goal is to bring compelling content for our users. Sorry for the false alarm... But glad you enjoyed!
Well, I had to wonder for a minute when DFW got approved for the A380, then let alone have one crash.lol. Donny, you pulled a good one here.lol
It still isn't approved for that beast bird....but they are starting concrete work on the South Western Cargo ops area.
*NorthWest....sorry my chair was turned around the wrong way
Well, they already got 3 runways down there that are 200' wide; they'll have to get taxiways and terminals updraded to handle it won't they? I figure it's coming. Just a matter of when.
How are ya Wayne? You been on vacation or something?
I been here. Hadn't seen you on in a month or so
Was over with LOT in Warsaw.
What were you doing with them? I thought you were totally retired?
I get calls if a company needs me...so I will go for say two months. This time it to teach 'em how to stael customers off of LH. Not a difficult job ..LH has their panties in a bunch at the moment. For the last 20 years I was a commercial manager. I am too old now for the tools..haha
10-4, I'm getting there. I've got that CRJ and the boss for awhile; 3-4 trips a month more or less but none of that Flight OPS director BS. I still get calls for advice though.lol
