I’ve seen this episode of Star Trek. You have to fly back through the storm along the opposite vector you entered from
And you also need to reverse the polarity of the shield extangulator before doing so!

Joko saa mennä torille?
Ei saa mennä torille, vaan pitää mennä torille.
Airsick lowlanders aren’t used to such heights
I had to check. Another year until the next novel. For a dude who is so prodigious, Sanderson lags a bit on his opus.
Too busy writing an entire series of terrible YA space dogfighting.
Firing lines are NOT how you dogfight, Sanderson. That should be how all the child soldiers get blown up by aliens and the protagonist learns they aren’t special.
…
I would like his take on a black powder fantasy series though. Jumping from medieval settings to a Western was a bit jarring.
At no point in Skyward do they dogfight in a firing line. Cobb puts the students in a line to teach them discipline, coordination, and maneuvering. He criticised the teaching style of other instructors who let the students dogfight right away. Cobb believed in hammering in the fundamentals until they were instinct, and only then allowing them to actually fight. This is sensible military doctrine.
Skyward is a great book.
What’s that Nimi? You can’t see the picture too well?
No Nimi, I’m not going to let you take a peek.
Just tell the judge you don’t understand how they got smaller and Finnair… I’ll see myself out.

I assume since it’s the FAA they flew out of Finland to America. America is further south and anyone who has looked at a map knows that things shrink when they are closer to the equator.
I think I’ve flown in a slightly lengthier version of this to Tenerife.
I was on it just this Tuesday…
Of the 976 ever produced, only 22 DC-9’s remain in operation (as of last February according to Wikipedia). Not exactly a common plane to come across.
You’re reading it a bit more literally than it was intended. “Flying sardine can to the Canaries” being the gist I was going for.
Storms are cold yo, shrinkage to be expected.
Of course. I should have known the answer is just “Finland”
THIN air
You mean to say that plane will always be holding short?
“Yah broski, i did honey i shrunk the kids but with a plane”
