| Milwaukee airport |
Flew from the UK via New York (weather OK) to Dallas (weather perfect) but via Milwaukee.... It is a cheaper to go via Milwaukee, but it nearly meant ending the journey in Milwaukee as the snow blew up and the ploughs (sorry plows!) went out and the airfield closed!
However, they must be used to snow and wind, because the airfield re-opened, we took off and arrived in Dallas less than a hour late.
Tomorrow, to the 609 factory thanks to AgustaWestland. NB sat next to some AgustaW engineers on the 'van' up from the airport and they said that AW was an excellent example of synergy at work. That both companies had taken their strengths and put them together to work well - the Italians had the flexibility, the English the structure. I had no problem believing them, although for structure I might put bureaucracy!
