Sitting on a Continental Embraer jet at the gate in Houston about to push back for a flight back home to Birmingham...looking at all those storms to the north of Birmingham...heading south towrd the airport...

Could be a great light show landing...

Or could be landing somewhere else...hopefull my next post will be from Birmingham...

Traveling is often an adventure...

Looks like we might do this again tomorrow also...

Reporting on severe weather in Birmingham from the Houston Airport. That's just awesome!

I landed in a severe TS in BHM once....no fun at all!
Turbulence at 30,000' is not so bad, but it's not much fun when you're bouncing around 50' off the ground.

I have no idea! Most likely not for carry on but in the luggage probably. If you are lucky you might me able to get a plain that has head phones already installed to hear the pilots. My mom and dad had been on one with them!
