(Yes, I know that title gets used a lot in my blog.)
My day.
Times in Eastern.
1:30 am. Phone call from dispatch, possible ASAP pop up air ambulance trip. Will know for sure by 3 am. Will call by then. Just go back to sleep.
Yeah, right....
3:30-3:45 am. Finally fall back asleep. No phone call.
7:30 ASAP pop up trip, Home to Dayton, pick up, Peoria IL, drop. Come home. Promise you'll be back by 1:30.
Yeah, right.
Times in Central. from here on.
10:30 Land in Peoria, see passenger off. Get call from dispatch. Wait there to see if they can sell the airplane on a trip headed back towards home. Will call one way or another in 2 hours. This I foresaw.
Yeah, 2 hours, right.
2 pm. Call Dispatch, Ask why they haven't called. Told to wait while they make a call to see what's going on.
2:30 Call Dispatch. Told we could have launched for home "anytime". Pay FBO for forehead shaped hole in wall.
106 knot tail wind, shaves 15 minutes off of flight.
Times back in Eastern.
4:15 pm. Land back home. tremors from caffeine make filling out logs... difficult...
5:15 Clear airport finally, Airplane cleaned, restocked, reset, Paperwork filled, filed and mutilated.
How was your day?

About as screwed as yours... Worked a full day in Honolulu, 2 hours late on the red-eye out of HNL, missed connect at IAH, sat for 4 hours, 2.5 hours back into IAD, 1.1 hours waiting for bags...
