Lucas: Airplane Drama In Maui

Posted Nov 30, 2008
It is already 6:16 p.m. for a scheduled 6:05 p.m. departure and American Airlines Flight 6 is still sitting at the gate at Kahului Airport in Maui . The pilot, whose name is Tom Crews--say it out loud, and yes, that's really his name--is awaiting for the appropriate paperwork to be cleared by the FAA before he can push back and begin the seven-hour overnight trip to Dallas.
