About This Item

Filbert's Frequent Flyer Card #7.jpg

Filbert Geocache....well he's an ‘anorak’, in particular a plane spotter! He devotes all his spare time visiting the observation decks of airports around the world.

Clutching a well-worn note book Filbert religiously records the registration details of any commercial aircraft he spots. Filbert also likes to collect airline memorabilia - safety demonstration cards, sick bags and luggage tags just to name a few.

It comes as no surprise Filbert is a member of just about every frequent flyer program he can sign up to! Filbert is happiest when he is flying, ensconced in an economy class seat, sipping his free beverage, racking up the frequent flyer points and recording every trivial detail of the flight in his note book!

Add to Filbert’s happiness by taking his frequent flyer card #7 TB on your next flight, whether its for business or pleasure. Be sure to record all the details - the flight number, plane model and rego, departing airport, destination and flying time! Look out for Filbert's other frequent flyer cards #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #8, #9, #10, #11, #12, #13, & #14, on your travels.

Picked up Frequent flyer Card # 7. Not sure of any flights soon, but will get it back in circulation within the week.

How appropriate! We fly out of NV tomorrow. I'll add the details and some pictures soon!

Here are the details: America West 722 - on an Airbus 320 - leaving gate B10 at Las Vegas airport supposedly at 11:22, but in actuality 12:12 - arriving at Chicago O'Hare supposedly at 4:59 but in actuality 5:15. The flight was late because someone in Philadelphia forgot to sign the plane's log proving it had gone through its daily terror check. Fortunately we didn't have to deplane; we just waited endlessly for the paperwork nightmare to be fixed.

Okay, made it to Arizona. We flew into Phoenix, but took Filbert 2 hours north to Prescott. The picture shows that I put Filbert in the Acker Park cache, but I actually placed it in the Ackers Ghost cache, just a little ways away. This one was hidden well. Finally spotted it after about 10 minutes. As I was stooping down to grab it and not get pinched by the stickers I heard something snap in my pocket...uh oh Filbert. He's gonna need some tape...which I did not have with me. Not to worry, he's still in one piece, but he does have a bit of a crack down his center. So be careful with this weary traveling bug til you get him taped up.
