hey don't forget us too...they make us file IFR when we could get out VFR and save half an hour of idling at 150lb/hr per engine. at least i dont have to pay for any of it...

Kelli, yes... now that AF1 is back on the south side of the field, it is very easy and relatively smooth for AF1 to land 31L, roll off the end to the parking / secure area by Atlas Cargo at the far end of 31L and then quickly jump on 13R and take off to the Southeast
