Short Final

July 24, 2006


The following was an exchange between a friend and a pre-flight briefer last weekend. The briefer got to the NOTAMS and there was one for a rocketry club near Schaumburg, IL...

Briefer : ... and Schaumburg has a warning that they'll be firing rockets.

My Friend: Man! First it's North Korea, now Schaumburg!

It took the briefer about two minutes to stop laughing enough to continue the briefing.
