Wife on United plane at Phx SkyHarbor. Plane was in Phx overnight+wings are frozen. Cant takeoff until sun burns ice off. No de-icing in Phx
@bmaz It's just as well bc that stuff has got to be toxic as hell and you guys don't have the water to dilute it all.

@emptywheel Weird though, right? I suppose it has happened before at Sky Harbor, but I have never heard of it. -
@bmaz No more of an inconvenience than waiting for temps to fall below (what is it--120?) so the planes will have life--and less frequent. -
@emptywheel THAT I am familiar with. Above that, the runways turn to goo and wheels get stuck! -
@bmaz@emptywheel who's the genius who decided to plop a sprawling city in that stretch of Arizona? -
@evanperez Prolly same genius who ignored that extensive irrigation didn't work forever the LAST time someone plopped a city there.@bmaz -
@emptywheel@evanperez Hey now, we are still using the old canal system from the Hohokams! -
@bmaz Using the canals of a long-dead society might be a hint you're doing it wrong...@evanperez -
@emptywheel@evanperez You'll regret this when I move to GR!
