john roe Posted March 23, 2010 Author Share Posted March 23, 2010 Hi John, just wondering if you picked up the Skywest flight from the Pilbara to Busselton early this afternoon. According to their schedule it did operate today and I noticed a north-south contrail at about 1230. Replied by email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
