    Where did you fly into... Springfield Regional? I wouldn't think any of their flight rates would beat Greyhound from just about anywhere.

    Buckingham's BBQ across the street from Culver's and to the south a bit is also pretty good if you're hungry for some BBQ this week.

    Flew from St Petersburg/Clearwater on Allegiant airlines to Springfield. Got the ticket for about $145. If I would have
    bought it a week or so earlier I could have gotten it for under $100. I'd have paid a little extra anyway to keep from riding
    a bus for 38 hours. I'll be trying out that BBQ. I'm always looking for some good BBQ.

    Welcome Jet. Remember, the next couple of months is basically a job interview, this 1st week is just the 1st part of it. Be early to every thing, Prime considers that on-time. Have fun, relax and enjoy the ride.

    Awesome info. I can say that they are trying to scare a lot of people away.. Lol
    Had me scared to death and I ain't scared of nothing.. Lol
    The way I figure it is, if your not 10 minutes early then your 15 minutes late!

    Yeah, they DO NOT mess around, they are there to vet you, Once you get to the simulators, remember those are Wally's Babies and they take those very seriously.
