More stories of what a "minor" inconvenience from an insensative goat can mean
to a flight operation.

All,
I had a 4 hour delay the day the day Clinton had his hair cut on the end of
25R at KLAX, they should have cut his throat, I already had a 15 hour
flight time sector ahead of me, we just made it with minutes to spare in
our heavy crew duty limit of 20hrs, I was on the way to Melbourne YMML,
direct from KLAX.
What was so infuriating about the episode is that there are two perfectly
good, VIP spots ( and more secure than the eastern fence at KLAX, right by a main
road) on the western remote ramp, where AirForce 1 and similar
always go.
Cheers,
Bill Hamilton.
