Cathay and Virgin Ground Delays Last Night

As reported on 1010wins.com. What I found funny is what they decided to use as the article's header.

There were a LOT of planes out there that jsut could not get to gates.

Ground equipment and aircraft sitting at gates were literally frozen to the ground.

Same thing at good ole LGA. We had about 12 planes on the ramp takeing up Zulu Alpha last night waiting for stands and when I left a furthur 8 or so on Alpha just hopeing to get a spot to freeze on the ramp.

Yeah, almost every gate at every terminal at JFK was full. I saw aircraft parked at angles at hardstnads so two could fit in as well.

The ramp was rough.....three inches of cie with three inches of snow cone ice on top.

I told my good buddy (an honorary Irishman) that the luck of the irish were upon him.

He was on the exact same flight twice quite recently and escaped this Cathay Cabin Fever!
