In response to Dave Vega's inquiry about my favorite airplane, I really enjoy flying the A-320. Recently I started a few flights with the Focker. I really like the way it handles. My most memorable flight had to be flying from Atlanta into Mexico City (flight #226) in a 767. The descent had to be quick and I ran into a fog bank of biblical proportion. Almost did a go-around, but managed to get on the ground without disasterous consequence. Thanks for all the support. As I have reiterated on occasion it is a joy to fly for Sunair Express.......jt

Congrats on your promotion. One day I aspire to tread in your contrails. Keep up the great work!
