Evergreen airlines was in the Kamchatka area of Russia in the winter & they were out of de-ice fluid. A pickup truck full of vodka was dumped in the de-ice machine and after spraying the wings of the 747 departed for Anchorage.

It's kinda hard to determine which comments here are factual, which are fantasy and which are wishful thinking, but they are all fun to read!

That's the same with many posts here...

Up to us to sort out what we can count on.
Proves the adage about seeing it on the internet... [emoji12]

Obviously you don't know that if something is on the internet, it must be true.

This is one of the greatest post's I've seen in a long while. I never tied it, but it does sound like a great time next spring for sure.
