A routine November afternoon at KMSP.

I have read quite a few PIREPs from the Minneapolis guys recently that mention the "great" winter weather we've got at KMSP. So, I thought I'd deadhead out from my winter quarters in California and pull a routine flight to see how it goes. I drew SPA 1403, a Cat 3 flight in a CRJ-700 from Minneapolis down to Kalamazoo. Scheduled departure and arrival were 1210/1425 Local, with a one hour time zone change. I got off the gate at 1200 L and was at the gate in Kalamazoo at 1432 L, seven minutes late. BUT, I had to line up behind a couple of Northwest guys to takeoff and that took forever. Anyhow, I've posted a "few" photos detailing my routine flight. Check it out in "More of Mike's Miscues".
