As I write this Duck Mittlefehldt should be in NZ,  and Brian Rougeux and John Schutt should be too.  But the latter spent an extra night in LA when the plane they were supposed to take to Auckland got boxed in by another airliner hitting a baggage cart.  Ooopsy!  But I’ve been informed they got on their plane last night so are winging across the pacific right now.
