Default GA is priceless

The worst experience was sitting in a passenger terminal for two days when
commercial flights were grounded by ice.


How many GA flights were departing at the time?


Actually in that case I had planned on commercial because of the length
of the trip. If I had gone GA I'd have left a day earlier and gotten
out before the storm. The first day I spent in the airport was because
of ice. The second day was because of the incompetence of the airline
as they ran out of deicing fluid. The sky was blue and aircraft of
every description were flying. Commercial over GA was the wrong choice
that time.
