Generally I see some of these jams at around 9:00 AM daily, rougly 5 planes waiting on the tramac for take off ... Today I was surprised to see the Jam in the early morning.. First one in the wings was a cargo...couldnt identify which one... Followed by a Private Jet (Wonder who was in it ) Third in Row was the faithful IA Fourth in Row was AGAIN a private jet (No N3208X) My grey cells began to work and was wondering who migh tin those private jets and get stuck in the jam in the tramac... Anyway, Did anyone see the same phenomenon in BLR or any other place. Have a safe journey Ram P Back to top sammyk Member Joined: 20 Dec 2006 Posts: 2719 Location: Austin, TX Posted: Tue Apr 03, 2007 9:10 am    Post subject: What did the cargo jet look like? Colors? Twin/Tri/Quadjet?

There was a Air force fighter, followed by a Kingfisher ATR (complete 180 Degree turn very soon after take off) and a DN ATR in rapid succession. I was quite happy that ATC was releasing a/c so rapidly - that's the only way to get the number of movements to increase.

With all the international companies in India now it's not so surprising.

Animated smileys are probably the most annoying thing on the internet when you're trying to read a forum. Besides, why would you roll your eyes at what you said? Do you not believe a corporate jet with a US registration could be in India?

Extensive use of the smiley (especially without any actual sarcasm) gets annoying after a while.

Quote: Do you not believe a corporate jet with a US registration could be in India? I meant does it come on regular services. Else it can be something like AI 767s It's a private jet, who knows if it is regular, they never stick to any sort of schedule. They basically come and go as they please. As for the smiley, it typically represents a "whatever" or sarcastic attitude so adding it w/o that attitude seems odd and unnecessary. Like when you ask "How did a Cessna make it all the way from USA to India?", would you roll your eyes when asking that question in person?

This is a public forum, the question was asked in general...so how did u feel offended by it And as far as the smiley is concerned a Rolling Eye smiley always indicates a 'suspect' and there was a suspect here in my mind as to how a Cessna makes it regularly to India all the way from US since it carries a US regn#. Or is it something like AI 767s _________________ http://www.myspace.com/avsatsworld A Walt Disney and 20th Century Fox Audio Producer!!!

Rolling eyes never mean "suspect". Where did you get that from? Ask anyone, I don't think anyone rolls their eyes in suspicion. A raised eyebrow represents suspicion.
