Sounds as if they are committed big time.

I wonder how long that flight will be? 20 minutes? Lol.

I think I saw a chinook flying over earlier today with Parkin hanging from it.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: First thing I though of was Clemo, I remember talking to Harry Parsons and asked him if he enjoyed flying to games. He said they loaded the kit onto the plane and the directors and the team went by mini-bus, the old transit. Those were the days and how things have changed.

BD-700-1A11 Global 5000 Typical configuration features 18 passenger seats including fully berthable seats and an aft lounge/bedroom.

The maximum takeoff weight is 89,700 lb (40,700 kg) which means that Parkin will have to take the bus.
