Private Charter home from Santa Fe
And the 20 minute drive to the airport.
Our plane waiting for us just beyond the security fence. I drove up to the gate, pushed the call button and with a simple "Hi, this is SFO777 for N553BW", the gate opened and we drove up to our plane.
Our flight crew stowed our bags on board, and we gave our rental keys to ground staff who subsequently returned our car to Avis.
A final pre-check and we were on our way to runway 17 and the 45 minute ride home.
45 short minutes after wheels up at SAF, we touched down back on runway 35R at APA.
And a couple minutes later pulled up to our ramp position and our waiting car with Mrs. SFO once again proclaiming "this is the only way to fly".
I am in so much trouble.
