In Phoenix? Flying south for the winter?


Alaska pihots are so used to landing on ice covered runways in zero
visibility with 40 knot sidewinds, they head south to experience
landing where they can actually see the runway.

Kinda throws 'em; my sister flew Alaska to Tucson a couple years back,
stopped in Phoenix on the way and he hit the runway so hard the flight
attendant came on and announced that was just the first bounce; the
next one would be at TUS...
