WE HAD BETTER LAND GEAR UP!  This decision was made by an Eastern Captain when he and his crew on the newest jet in the Eastern fleet had a gear malfunction.  The aircraft was full with over 100 passengers.  Re-live this dramatic story as presented in this week's Episode 117.  Please be on-board as we depart from the Gate at 7:00 pm EST.  Go to:  www.blogtalkradio.com/capteddie

All airlines have them - flight delays.  It's how they work through them that counts in the mind of the delayed passenger.  Tonight we consider several types of aircraft delays.  There's weather of course, which no airline can control. There're mechanical delays and some airlines have dependence on contract maintenance.  Even flight crew on-duty time set by the company and the FAA.  See if you have ever experienced the type delays discussed in tonight's radio show.  We depart the Gate (barring no delays) at 7:00 p.m. EST.  We hope you will be on-board.
