Tom Posted September 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2020 It's a relatively cool morning here in Arizona as I prep for my trip back home. Current temp is 70F under clear skies. Yesterday, the haze in the skies were about as thick as I've seen them all year round from the intense fires burning in California. I couldn't believe how much sun was being blocked from the haze. Wild weather out here in the West. The temp today is forecast to hit 88F which is the lowest high temp in months! I'll check back in when I fly back home.

Even that 61 was the coldest high at GR since May 18th it was also the 3rd coldest high for any September 8th in GR history. During the day the temperatures stayed in the 50's.

My advice to you is: make sure your caps are not on (especially, if your "Caps Lock" does not offer you a light to distinguish if they are on or off) and make sure the password you are using is the same. You might want to double check that. The computer just wants to make sure that you are a human. Also, another important factor is, make sure you are trying to log in w the same email address and not a different one for each device. That will not work for ya. Finally, make sure you sync your settings on all your devices equally. Hope this helps. Good luck!

Tom Posted September 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2020 I wanted to tell you guys what a great experience I had flying for the first time during this COVID pandemic. First off, I felt very safe and props to American Airlines for making everyone feel comfortable. Every person had to be masked up otherwise they wouldn't allow you on the plane. I asked for a seat up grade and they granted me it by moving my seat up towards the front of the plane. I had a whole isle to myself (winning) and enjoyed a perfect window seat in front of the wing and jet engine on a 737. It was a picture perfect morning for takeoff with calm winds and 100% clear skies. Initially, I thought it would be a bumpy ride through AZ/NM but it was smooth sailing until we got to CO when the captain turned on the seat belt lights, esp over Denver and the front range. It got a bit turbulent for about 10-15 minutes. We continued our flight through NE CO into C NE (right over North Platte) then right over Sioux Falls, then due east right across IA and we flew right between DSM and Waterloo. It was a memorable journey flying over these same states bc it was just early Aug I drove through these same areas! It was a neat experience knowing our flight literally took the same path but in reverse (AZ to Chicago) and 39,000 ft in the air. Oh ya, every seat now on a newer AA plane has a TV which has all sorts of media, 3D maps, movies, TV shows, entertainment..you name it that is all for FREE. The airline is really upgrading the flight experience from what I notice. Throughout the flight, as we climbed towards cruising altitude, I was paying attn to the Flight Status and our cruising speed was about 580 mph, we climbed up to 39,000 ft (way above the wx), the coldest temp we reached was an incredible -71F! All in all, a wonderful experience on a relatively quick flight (3 hours) that was about 75% full. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
