That's pretty neat! It's like watching ants trying to avoid raindrops during a thunderstorm.

Wow, what a great video. Did you see that some went into holding patterns while some diverted to Dallas, Little Rock, and I think Nashville. How'd ya like to to ATC for that mass of aircraft??

That was great!!! How funny is that! I agree...they look like ants!!!! I would have just flown through the storm and see what happens! I am not much for diverting!

Steve,

Yes, I saw those holding patterns. Nicely done. I know you work for Fedex but how the hell did you know they were diverted to Dallas, Little Rock and Nashville? Or were you just acting smart? :)

Is there a reason you being behind a desk not a cockpit at Fedex? :peek:

That's the spirit Eric. :yes: Of course, you can handle that. Would be nice, if we actually could see the weather on our ATC Radar screen.
