A Frozen Plane

With airport temperatures at 50 below, our Alaska Airlines flight tried to take off but the de-icer failed. Waited 10 hours for a replacement part, then the second engine would't start at take off. Fred Meyer sign indicates the temperature.

Here's a picture of a Japan Airlines crew working in the ice fog, while we were waiting for the mechanics to start our engine. We get a lot of Japanese tourists this time of year. They like to see the Northern Lights. Tough weather.
