fuel that plane ...
She "guesses" that Boomer's #753 won't be ready for
"push-back and taxiing" till 9:30 pm at the earliest. ...
Then they have to hope for a take-off slot to be available.
:(
Hard to do if it didn't arrive till 8:58! :rolleyes:
:p
I'm so nervous for my Boomer boy!! He must be so scared and confused :( He's never heard a New Jersey accent before:eek: He probably thinks that I've abandoned him and sent him to his death:( :(
Talk about a nail-chewing time! We're ALL nervous.
I can't remember when I've been at the edge of my seat for so long.
Hopefully he'll take off in about half an hour. Poor lil guy, what a long day!
It'll be all right when he gets with his grammy and grampop.
I dont know who this kitty is, but when I saw this internet picture I thought it looked like he was praying that boomer gets to grandmeowmies house soon:) http://www.funthumb.com/images/funnypictures/kitty3.jpg
I just got done reading all the posts. Better suspense/adventure novel than the John LeCarre book I just finished!
Good to know that Boomer has some Pet Reps looking in on him and checking his status.
Keep the updates a-comin' Phred!
Go Boomer - you're almost home!
Lordy, you would think it was TYLER on the plane by himself with all of us at the edge our seats.
But the idea of wonderful Boomer being caged all of this time - and yes, having to listen to some New JOISY accents - has me completely wrapped up in this story.
(with apologies to all of those from New Jersey that I have offended!!)
Status: Departed Gate Late, taxiing to runway
he's off!!
Thank God!
You're in the home stretch Boomer!
What an adventure.
YOU GO BOOMER.
:D
Two minutes ago the Passenger Rep's screen uppydated:
Flight 753 "Pushed Back & is Taxiing" for take-off!! :)
ETA at Columbus will appear as "a good time" as soon as the
system logs the "wheels up" time for #753.
Gonna be somewhere around 11:00 pm.
GO BOOMER!
So are we!!.........cargo is expecting us........ZOOM!!Quote:

YEAH!!!!!!! Flight tracker doesnt tell us that still stuck on "pending".
Yay!!!! Fly high, little guy!! Last roundup.
YEAH! The Plane is finally taking off!
His Air Cargo Waybill says he made the connection and
is aboard 753 >>>

Hmmmmmm ....
Here's why the story gets confusing >>>
"Flight maps include proprietary data that is intended for World Wide Web
and users may not link the data for any purpose to a third-party site
or retransmit the data as part of a commercial enterprise.
FlightView map information delayed 20 minutes per FAA requirements."
The Reps have "the Real Story" on their puters ...
most of what WE can see is delayed by 20 minutes!
Oh well. :rolleyes:
ahhhh that explains why the flight tracker is still pending Real-time my butt:rolleyes:
Just how excited are you???? !!!!!!! This is so cool for you and your family:) It wont be long now till he is at home. I have been watching this for most of the day and husband and child think i am weird...but hey, who cares what they think....your baby boy is on his way to see his grandmeowmie!!:)
I miss him already!! But just one week from today it will be myself, Tyler, and Grammy winging our way to Ohio:D
Guess that would make sense. Drives us nuts LOL
Us PT's will probably want to watch you and Tylers flight progress too:) :) you will have to let us know all the numbers and such when the time comes:)
Go Boomer !!! This I think is the fastest built thread we have had ever. Oh yes we have to track the rest of the family too.
Finally got time to read all this! It's almost over Boomer! You'll soon be with Grandma and Grandpa! :D
I'm playing on line (play money) texas holdem. So I will be checking the thread. Gotta calm my nerves LOL
he is in the air..10,000 ft up :) about 400 knots .....he is a moving:D
Left at 9:49 p.m.
Arrival 11:05 pm
Are they going to have to wait the 1/2 unloading time etc?
Hope they unload faster than at Newark.
could this be him??? http://www.animationlibrary.com/Anim...lane_rises.gif lol :D
Here's Contnental Airline's "FlightView" Tracker >>>
Continental's "FlightView" ...
Just remember Boomer is 20 minutes AHEAD of
where the plane shows!
:eek:
Sumpin wrong there ...
Lil Air-o-Plane is already circlin over Columbus!
Not too likely to be happenin - yet.
:confused:
according to the galileo flight tracker, he will be coming right over my house...I will wave to him in a few minutes:D ;)
now almost 30,000 ft , and about 500 knots
I'm going crazy waiting so we are going to get out of the house and go to the zoo!
FlyteComm is a little more believable >>>
FlyteComm Flight Tracker
The Flight ID is either
753

Wow I just read this entire thread from the last entry backwards - what an exciting adventure! Good luck and safe landing, Boomer! You're going to be a buckeye now! (Yeah buckeyes!)
It's not a bad thing to be a Buckeye :)
My heart is in Ohio. I born raised in NE Ohio (Akron).
