Dateline: Denver Airport (on time and on schedule)

[hrj]

Total personnel involved in US Airways flight 4968 from Augusta ME:
1 airline counter attendent (doubles as luggage handler and flight-check assistant)
1 pilot
1 co-pilot
2 very bored and very meticulous TSA agents
1 local law enforcement (without whose presence the TSA agents evidently cannot operate)
2 passengers
(yes, 2)

I was feeling rather outnumbered.

Wow. I figured that'd be cause for them to cancel the flight. Glad it wasn't!

Keep in mind that this is a little Beechcraft prop plane that does the twice daily milk run between various points in Maine and Boston. Besides which, they couldn't cancel the flight, because they had 8 or so people to pick up in Rockland on the way.
