A short hop? If you were just on a 9 hour flight from London to JFK maybe that would feel like a short hop.
yeh, I guess it would.lol
Atleast it happened in the middle of Virginia and not further northeast, where the air traffic would've been a lot more hectic.
It looks like with all the circuitous routing, it was hectic enough.lol
