Looks like he's leaving Love Field at 12:30 CST today, arriving at Baltimore at 3:56 CST, and heading back to Love Field immediately at 4:00 CST.

This plane is registered to "Diamond A Administraction Company, LLC". Can anyone confirm that this is related to Ford?


Gerald J. Ford. Ford is chairman and CEO of the Diamond A Ford Corporation, an investment firm in Dallas.


Ok...Thanks...Guess I missed it...

Or his annual prostate exam. Imagine the shock when he opens the door and a small crowd is standing there cheering.


Well, Johns Hopkins in Baltimore is one of the finest medical schools in the country if not the world. If you're going to get medical care, you couldn't do any better.


Wouldn't the exam take longer than the plane was on the ground. Maybe not...

It wasn't on the ground long enough even for a quick ride into Baltimore to have a cover visit to the Johns Hopkins Eye Clinic. It takes about 25 minutes to go from BWI to Johns Hopkins. Another 25 minutes back at rush hour. That leaves about 30 seconds for an eye exam.

Did all of that with former coaches players at both Colorado and Washington. Got fired from both jobs after he drove them into the ground. Bill Callahan coached in a Super Bowl too--with John Gruden's players. Look how well that turned out at Nebraska.

yeah a guy wins a bunch of bowls, finishes in the top 5 in the country, wins the Pac 10.....and it's all luck...wonder why when some guys take over other people's players they dont win so many bowls if it's all that easy?...I am sure thats why he is currently an offensive cooridnator in the NFL......do you know how many people would die to be an OC in the NFL?.......yeah the experts in the NFL must agree he is an idiot.....LOL

Considering he was here three weeks ago to play North Texas Community College, my guess is that he doesn't need to be shown around.

Dallas and Denton are like opposite ends of the earth, in terms of quality of life.

By the way, thanks to everyone who has made me laugh uncontrollably today and waste an entire day of my boss's money. Without question the funniest day on this site.

I think we can safely assume that the plane was going up there to pick someone or something up, and SMU96, please refute my plane specific assumptions if I am wrong -


If the plane was simply dropping someone off - why the hour ten, hour fifteen minute layover? I can't imagine refueling inspection, etc. to take more than 20 minutes.


If they were going up for a quickly meeting.... why? It's not like they have to meet on the tarmac to keep it a secret. Why not stay fro a night?

Beyond that, an hour fifteen doesn't give you anytime to go anywhere and comeback.

I can only imagine that the case is that the plane is going there early to get gassed up, run through inspection, etc. and waiting for the perspective party/succulent batch of crab to be picked up and whisked away without delay.




So with all those assumptions.... someone's (or something's) getting picked up....
