and they closed the whole airport for like 2 hours. I was like, whoa dude, they just shut everything down the wx (weather) was so bad, man. I thought like, one of those big Korean jets might fly thru because those big Korean jets are so big and could take some weather, but nope didn't see one of them. i asked the captain where the big korean jet was and he was just like, probably on the E term, bro. i started thinking about times when airports shut down and the only other time was like 9/11 or something serious, not for just wx (weather). but i wonder if its happened before in atl, anyone?
 
Those big Korean jets are like.....BIG. Are the ILS needles in Korean? Does the gypwhiz yell in Korean?

HEY....HEY.....HEY! Everyone, go easy on the young tyke here....it was his FIRST opportunity to get some ACTUAL! I mean....200 hours and zip on the Actual....he was a bit excited, so cut him some slack!:rolleyes:
 
not to be a know it all but i think its GPWS, not gypwhiz. and also, i was like doing some exploratory models of that really big korean jet and i think that they could fit at least about 40 more seats. as we all know the average asian size is smaller than us so, you i made a sketch of the plane on the back of a fuel load sheet and it came out great because it was carbon. i was just worried that the captain might steal the carbon so i hid it when i got up to go to the bathroom en route to GTR. basically though, im going to the engineers with this. if anyone wants to know what the GPWS says, ill let you know when i get back exploring that really big korean jet.
 
also, i wonder how they says ALTS CAP, and if there is an asian captain that has ALTS written in korean on a hat that he puts on in cruise flight.
 
Wow! An airport closing for WX! Haven't seen that in all of my weeks of flying!
