23 July OSH accident audio

wrote: So if a controller says "delay due to accident", you have a 300 percent error margin, with 30 minutes probably being sensible to wait out and 90 minutes being a little on the long side. I wouldn't know what to do with that information, but, well, that's just me. When I flew to OSH back in 2002, I had refueled at Kirksvill, MO (IRK) and as such, I had at least 2 hours of fuel, just in case there was any sort of delay... I can see how someone with less of a fuel reserve might start getting a bit testy with the prospect of an indeterminate delay...
