Airlines are run by airline employees. Both groups are primarily a bunch of morons. Don't expect too much. That way you won't be disappointed.)The Big Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16973716466048213786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-71499949698984124762013-02-07T14:30:20.127-05:002013-02-07T14:30:20.127-05:00Syracuse should be operating with minimal delay un...Syracuse should be operating with minimal delay unless winds are to bad.
