Wichita

Trip details are firming up. I've got my US consulate interview on Friday 9 May, departing the following Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday. I'll be traveling and working with a 48 y/o guy from New Zealand.

The bloke we're working for is based in Burlington Oklahoma which is a town on the Oklahoma/Kansas boarder. It sounds like we'll be flying in via Wichita in Kansas.

There's a great scene in the film Trains, Planes and Automobiles (starring Steve Martin & John Candy) that mentions Wichita. Neil and Del, two men of opposing personalities, are stranded in the middle of nowhere, trying to get to Chicago. Del arranges a ride.
