FedEx Ant Hill
 
Ya'll may have seen this before, but I love it as much as I did the first time I saw it.

It's a time lapse map of the U.S, showing all of the Fedex aircraft moving about the U.S. Incredible! :up:

on a day like that the radio is so busy you really have to squeeze in words like "Approach, Flight 123, we need about ten... make that fifteen right for weather."

fun fun fun... no better thrill

Maybe it's just me but I get a real sense of joy tracking my packages online.

You will probably not find it unless you were wrapped up in cardboard somewhere in the cargo hold.

Wow, what's that hub in the south? Memphis?

Regarding package tracking, UPS are my new heroes :)
