In the spirit of another thread from another member who has shared his journey to pick up his mystery speedy, I thought it would be only appropriate that I share mine as well. I will be travelling from Boston to the OB destination 5078 miles away with the family. The trip started on 8/19, but will not be able to pick it up until the 25th. But in the meantime, I'll post pics of where myself and my PO will be off to, and you can guess where we are.....Thanks for tagging along on this journey!

 

5078 miles. That’s dedication for you. Enjoy your trip and looking forward to more photos.

 

NICE. I loved the last "mystery watch pickup"-thread

I'll take a wild guess that you're at Fernandina or Jacksonville beach. Heading to the Jacksonville OB.

Have a excellent trip. All the best and do share more photos

 

Here's my guess. Are these your local wheels while you wait to pick up the new speedy?

 

Hawaii. Kapalua.

 

This surprised me -- the last remnant of the Empire

 

You are NOT in the pointy end.

 

Your daughter's shaka gives it away!

 

Awesome. This better be something rare!

 

everybody a gansta until MCAS kicks in

 

On an MD-88? That's a steam powered aircraft

The 737-MAX was just pretending to be steam powered

 

Not quite...we’re on the ground parked at the gate with the motors off in that pic.

What you’re seeing indicating ~ 350kts is the “barber pole” or the maximum allowed indicated airspeed...the other needle on that gauge is the actual indicated airspeed...which is zero.

 

HAH! Good eye!

 

Here are a couple more to end the day.... can't wait until the 25th....

These sorts of threads are fun. Good luck with the pick up....from as close to the pointy end as a PAX can get.

 

Following closely with great anticipation... stick to foodland for poke!

 

Foodland is the spot.... God I miss living here.....
