12 knots?About this speeding!Great fun for us armchair pilots, must be 'challenging' or no go in real world.Thoughts for those in the real world suffering.Virgin have cancelled all their small tiny 747's to Orlando and Tampa from UK, so possibly they know something.(g)

>Virgin have cancelled all their small tiny 747's to Orlando>and Tampa from UK, so possibly they know something.(g)I was rather astonished that Southeast 489 departed KGYY this afternoon at 1:30pm enroute to St. Petersburg, FL...When Scott (the tower manager) asked, they were dead heading back, so they could pick up a FULL load of panic filled pax anxiously awaiting evacuation..."Ah ha!" I thought, "Now that makes sense..." :)

12 knots is OK. If the wind is 40 to 45 in your face, IAS = 52 to 55. Took under 5 secs to reach takeoff speed!JS
