AR14 Timelines, Timetables and Flight Information
DrRox:
Well it appears to me in the promo that they are running AWAY from the flight line to the parking lot. Also in the promos there are shots of teams in cars going to LAX.

I think the discussion starts here DrRox..

It all depends on which side of the runway you're on. If you're on the south side, taking Valleyview will dump you directly on the 405 feeder (try routing it from Orangewood next to the Navy golf course and you'll see what I mean). The teams are on the north side; in addition to the longer route, the traffic (weekday mornings, at least) on the north 605 will back up (for miles, sometimes) starting at the I-5 junction. Teams could save time going right instead of left on Katella (and avoid the red-light-camera intersection at Los Alamitos blvd. :rules: ;D) and then down Valleyview, but it would be counterintuitive.

According to the blogger in Salzburg, the pit stop on the evening of Nov 3, was the Schloss Hellbrunn in Salzburg, not Berchtesgaden or Raushberg.
According to Romaniafan's post at 2:05:56 am on Nov 5th he had just returned from picking up his friend at "about 12:45 am" and seeing the Amazing Race teams at the airport in Buchrrest. Romaniafan's post is here http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,17788.msg358736.html#msg358736
I think you have accidentlally added a day here, because of the confusing midnight arrival. I think teams possibly have some tasks around the Salzburg area on the morning of Nov 4, then make their way to Bucharest, arriving around midnight Nov4-5, not midnight Nov5-6. Your timeline has teams leaving Salzburg on morning of Nov 5, when they have already been seen in Bucharest.
If I am mistaken, my apologies in advance.
apskip:
Dr. Rox, I can see your point and it looks like you are closer to right than me. I will need to address it.
I must ask you, Where have you been on this date problem? It has been in every timeline since Nov. 16. Why are you raising the issue now? Why not address it in late November?
I can see in the dialogue on timelines that Neobie did raise the issue tangentially months ago. He did not press the issue but if I were more on the ball I would have dealt with it then.
DrRox:
Well, I am still very new at this. I do not have the ability, yet, to look at the whole race as you experts do. I never noticed it till today as I was filling in my new race "calendar." If I had noticed it sooner, I would have mentioned it.
