Official Welcome the Team Home at the Airport Thread

The team is in flight right now on their way back from Indiana. FlameFans are encouraged, nay, commanded to head to General Aviation over the Lynchburg Regional Airport to greet the team as they get off the plane. Their flight was supposed to arrive around 12:45am but it is running behind.

Curfew has been eliminated tonight to allow everyone to come be a part of the celebration!

Bring your cameras and tweet pics for those of us who can't be there.

It looks like the flight will arrive around 1:45 AM. Curfew is waived for dorm students who want to attend. The flight will arrive at Virginia Aviation. After you turn into the Lynchburg Regional Airport from Wards Road, take your first right and follow the winding road to Virginia Aviation!

I'm running through my head the exact video package I would do at the airport had I still be up there. Today's a day where I miss working at Liberty.

Hey I've really been trying to find a PT job if I could get paid for doing something as awesome as taking pictures of Liberty Athletic events I'd take it in a hot second :D

I did just get back from Iraq so any job for a veteran would be greatly appreciated :wink: hahaha

Les will be there as well.



What a win! I think my dad is pretty jealous that I came out because he's meeting the team out at the airport....that's dedication at that time at 63 for sure.
