Takeoffs are optional.
Landing is mandatory.

That's the problem with hitting weather on landing, the buzz has worn off.

Had some hail in that supercell that just passed through MSY.
Still a little possible hail near River Ridge but moving slowly away from airport.

I am at the baggage claim awaiting his bag of money.

Looks like we are gonna give it a go. Got an Aggie for a co pilot that needs to shut up

He’s got enough fuel to get to the alternate dipshit. He’s circling to try and get you into your shithole city instead of being delayed a few more hours.

This happened to me last year from DFW to BTR. We made at least three circles over the gulf waiting to get into BTR. Ended up in Gulfport that night and completed flight next morning.

This wouldn't have happened on Spirit.
RIP, sweet prince.

I've been sitting on the tarmac in Houston for 45 minutes. Originally was supposed to land at 350pm in Kenner. Im assuming weather is sketchy.

WTF how do you not have enough fuel
I'm going go out on limb here but their protocol to circle/leave the area is probably well before the indicator on the guage hits E.

Flight was supposed to last 2:45 and is almost 3:30 Don’t know how unusual that is.

Tell the pilot to land in HUM.
Just hold on tight. It is a short runway.
HUM:18/36: 6,509 x 150 ft) 12/30: 4,999 x 185 ft
Compared to:
MSY: 11/29 (\(10,104 \times 150\) ft) and 02/20 (\(7,002 \times 150\) ft)

I’m talking about flying time. Or at least gate to gate time.
Posted on 5/8/26 at 4:08 pm to Tedorgeron
Did the exact before. Had to go to Houston. Got to Houston and the pilots timed out on hours they could fly. Had to wait for some pilot to come from his car in the parking lot who wss heading home who apparently had hours left.
Worst part is it was 1 tiny storm over MSY. That didn't last very long.
Took hours and hours
Good luck.
