There's an error in your link Matt. Loads the page and then bombs out.

Sorry to be a bit off topic, but does anyone know if SW is going to bring only 73Gs or a mix of 733 and 73Gs??

FYI, the Southwest people are expecting the flight to land at LGA at about 4:00 or 4:15.

All the flights are scheduled to be -700's however there is always the option of MX or WX causing a swap out to a -300.

Cripes. I think it's only happening in IE...is that what you're using? If so, which version? Anyone else having issues?

Thanks!

Matt, I'm running Firefox and didn't have any problems accessing that page.

Works fine for me. Feel free to use any of my pics even though they are lousy.

I think that will be the second flight. There is another flight coming from BWI.

Link works fine for me and I'm on IE 8.0

I think I have fixed it on our end. If you continue to have problems, please let me know. Also, updating to Flash 10 seems to eliminate it either way.

My bad:

SWA 8725 DAL-LGA is expected to arrive around 4:20pm.

SWA 8726 BWI-LGA is expected to arrive around 7:00pm.

I'm going to head over to Planeview soon for the first one.
