EN: With a ride waiting ready to go, and the traffic light gods on your side, you might make it by 9:10 if you make effort to deplane before everyone else. - I fly in and out of Thunder Bay often. Good news - domestic morning flights are more likely to be on time than evening flights. More good news - TB airport is logistically easy, no lineups. If you have a car waiting, you can be off the plane and in the car in about 15 minutes after landing. Bad news - you've cut this too close. Any 5-minute delay will be fatal - unless you can start very late and be super fast. Edit: It's 5 km?? (7)

Post summary:Did anyone else happen to see this jerk parked there at lunch like the most entitled pig ever. Parked between the middle of the parking lot and the front near the door. So no one could pass or exit their spots. Absolutely unbelievable. Before everyone else. No, I didn't confront them because they weren't in the car. I also wasn't about to loudly express my disdain for driving in a busy McDonald's. So I didn't get the privilege of telling them how to do it.

EN: Matt Carr Repair is always great - As others have said, Matt Carr has been great in my experience, replaced some batteries and fixed a screen with no issues.

They send you a box to ship it in. (2)
