We had the same thing today, only there was no accident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our &#8216;Sho Up&#8217; cab came right on time and whisked us off to the airport some 12 miles out of town. Darlington is an old WWII airport with a triangle of runways, where two of the runways are now closed. Typical design with typical outcome. the remaining runway is in great shape, and there are new hangars aplenty. If I lived down here, I&#8217;d love to operate from this airport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We untied our airplane that we&#8217;d already fueled. We reloaded our luggage and picked up our clearance by telephone. We still had a headwind, but it was relatively light and the air was smooth. Severe clear all the way to Punta Gorda, where Bernadette and John picked us up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is Beverly enjoying much warmer weather and clear skies for a few days. Our flight was made safer by her fortitude and patience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-rounded\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.airdorrin.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/IMG_1954-Large-1.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.airdorrin.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/IMG_1954-Large-1-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4734\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.airdorrin.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/IMG_1954-Large-1-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.airdorrin.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/IMG_1954-Large-1-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.airdorrin.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/IMG_1954-Large-1-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.airdorrin.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/IMG_1954-Large-1.jpeg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.airdorrin.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/IMG_1959-Large-1.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.airdorrin.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/IMG_1959-Large-1-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4733\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.airdorrin.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/IMG_1959-Large-1-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.airdorrin.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/IMG_1959-Large-1-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.airdorrin.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/IMG_1959-Large-1-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.airdorrin.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/IMG_1959-Large-1.jpeg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just like accident investigations that take place the next day, in bright sunny and clear conditions.
