Shadiest Cargo Operator?

Randy was in the Airforce? What else do you know?

Since Air Tahoma is the only 121 that had a fatality in 2004...then I guess they have my vote. As for 135...yes Skyway has my vote there and what do they both have in common...loosers for owners.

So, Still navigating with that sexton I see.

Lots of shade at YIP, you see in the winter the sun angle gets so low, with only a 30 degree elevation in the winter at mid day, that makes a fence post throw a 7 seven foot shadow. So you see there is lots of shade at YIP.

I bet your polar crossing isn't current!

Shoot the sun

yea Jeff, remember it works like this, in January the sun's sub point is about 20S, YIP is about 42N, that is a total deflection of 62. Of course that is at local noon 1732Z. With 90 being the maximum elevation, the difference is around 30 degrees. That is why it is so shady in the winter at YIP. Can't do the polar crossing, it is in our op specs to stay away from the north pole. you did Cel nav in ground school right?

Kalitta should take the honors of this one.

Boy do I have some stories from a buddy of mine who worked there for a while.
