    We should've given Bosh the plane instead of the iPad.

    some time during the end of the season the rockets changed there call sign from 1-0-4-Hotel Romeo (N104HR Tail Number) to Paradigm 104. Seems like we will keep the plane for next year. I know United are consistently offering services to us but Hobby will always be our Departure Point.

    Oh, god. That is a zero in the middle from being Paradigm 14...as in the 14th seed Paradigm.

    The Boeing 727 must be a reliable veteran with a manageable contract. The perfect asset to haul around other assets.

    It reflects back on what could have been. The plane could have had a promising career of transporting the Miami Heat or the San Antonio Spurs to their destinations. It dreams of being able to someday fly the Houston Rockets to victory in the months of April and May.

    No offense, but I really don't want "crash5179" commenting about the Rockets team plane.

    I cant imagine flying so much. That would drain the crap out of me.

    Plane is no longer under our contract, goes back to paradigm (based in Alaska and Dallas) and it will take PGA Employees around the country, does some stuff for horse jockeys etc. It wont have a lot of movement because it is a 727 which isnt the most efficient airplane

    It's ok, just tell him we're tracking the plane 24/7 anyway. If it goes down, there should be a clutchfan within a one mile radius that can help him.


    Except in Utah, then he's on his own :grin:
