First airport dry run

Regional airport only. Partner spooked at the PA once but we reset and tried again. Progress not perfection.

Airport PA systems get us every time — dry runs are smart. We figured it out post-vet visit.

Quick thought, love seeing teams bounce back mid-outing — my landlord finally stopped asking after the verify screenshot.

Genuine question Security was nicer once they saw us reset instead of rush. How long did you train that piece before taking it public? (since switching vests for us).

Do you always use the same exit route when it goes sideways? Blitz and I are working on the same skill right now.

Zap finally nailed something like this after weeks of ugly reps. Also my landlord finally stopped asking after the verify screenshot.

Ear protection helped our team in the jet bridge chaos. you handled that better than I would have. Appreciate the honesty here.
