Duggar Aviation Part 2

[halcionne]

Cirrus. Rockford, IL to Springdale, AR. 650 miles; 4 hours by plane, 10 hours by car. And it's pretty clear there was an undocumented flight from Milwaukee to Rockford (which is about 100 miles and 90 minutes by car).

Way cool stuff!

And hmmm, too. What do you all think? Was Josh on the plane? 79 days into rehab and seemingly outside the bounds of the 4 stage program described on the website. Per the website, Josh should be only in stage 2, unless the porn addiction program (or a special treatment Duggar version) is different. Did he quit?

Or, did JB, JD, and another family member (Josiah?) go to the Republican debate on Monday night and then flew over to Rockford for an overnight visit, flying back to Springdale without Josh?

If there's a return flight to Rockford in the next week, we'll have an answer of sorts. 

My hunch is that Josh is still at RU, but it's only a hunch.

I was thinking it was a visit, not a release, but who really knows. I wondered if Anna had gone along on the trip (and maybe she did--again, we can't know), but Amy just posted pics of Meredith on her IG, so I doubt Anna left NWA.

It's interesting that they made an undocumented flight just after @Seven Severn and I discussed it in another thread... I see you, Duggars. 

unless amy was babysitting meredith for anna!

[Seven Severn]

Dang, I just saw this on Rockford Scanner (local police scanner monitor), they have pictures of the plane and everything on there.  too bad I worked late, I would have gone over there in creep like fashion. There is even a video of the plane: rockfordscanner.com/2015/08/26/there-a-celebrity-doing-rehab-in-rockford/

 

Rockford Scanner is not a great news source, but it does ok for the "celebrities" in Rockford, or the daily shootings

What a cool resource! Thank you! I read most of the FAQ, but didn't see really how it worked. Is there a person always at the airport recording the comings and goings? It would be amazing if we, at some point in the future, actually saw people on the tarmac.

Please watch for a Tampa flight. It will be interesting if all the Duggar manboys go to Tampa tomorrow for Whatever It Takes! seminar for 4 days to cure porn and sex addicts! http://witministries.com/events/

I don't think they have someone at the airport all the time, and to be honest I'm not sure how they found out they were at the airport. The site is run by a guy who listens to his scanner and gets in a lot of trouble around town (he got arrested during the summer for something, I don't remember what), so he has volunteers who listen to the police scanners and report on things going on. Rockford scanner reports on all the happenings in Rockford from car accidents to murders to the Duggars. Rockford is a big "little" town, with not much else going on!  The website is full of ads and it can get hard to read, but they're usually informed about most things. I wonder if there would have been chatter on the police scanner about the Duggars? (I could be wayyyyy reaching here) but an escort of some sort for Josh to the airport? Or else, just an FYI on the scanner or something? Maybe nothing and someone at the airport just let them know.

lmao that's so cool. I wish the camera wasn't so jumpy--there's clearly someone in the back seat (with a manly haircut? I really wish it was more clear!) and Jim Bob some dumbass in the front seat opening the door while the plane is moving. Ass.

What the heck with the door opening and closing???  Does the door not work properly in the plane they fly their family around in?

I can see RU having a family visit day during the week for Josh, the Duggars showing up would be all sorts of distraction for the other families during the regular visiting time.

Hope nobody fell out inflight!

I can just see the opening credits of 19KAC now... "Josh is our oldest, he married Anna and had our first grand babies, Mackenzie, Marcus, Michael, and Meredith. Then he was caught molesting his sisters and perusing hookup sites, so he went to rehab, then tragically fell out of our plane at 30,000 feet... the lord giveth and the lord taketh away..." all said in that scary baby voice!

This cracked me up!

The plane is in the air again.  Will arrive shortly in Denton, Texas.  Maybe they found a new place for Josh?

Denton? What kind of town is Denton, Texas? It says it's about 3 hours by car from Big Sandy. 

[gustava]

We keep looking for sex rehab centers but what if Josh is an alcoholic?

[Guiltygawker]

Denton is where the University of North Texas and where Texas Woman's University are. It is just north of Dallas.

[Hermen-uetics]

Denton is so close to Dallas, that they could be doing so many different things.  Is someone staying in the Dallas area, or dropping/picking someone up from Dallas/Fort Worth airport? I don't think there were any conferences with a Duggar scheduled to speak.

Maybe flying into DFW was too expensive this time so it was cheaper to fly into a small airport and take a shuttle to/from the bigger airport.

Here's a boarding treatment facility 7 miles from the airport:

http://www.santecenter.com/addictions/sex-addiction-treatment/

It's more upscale - treats "professionals"  (Professional addicts?)  It does seem to be more private.  At the Rockford place, anyone off the street could attend their Friday night event and see who is there.

But, that one doesn't have the Christian slant so I don't think the Duggars would approve.   

[doubleT]

My dad was a private plane pilot, a long, long time ago.  I don't know if planes are still like his but from what I remember when flying with my dad in his small plane (similar to the Duggar one)  is that the circulation of air in the plane didn't work until you got into the air, so we would always keep the door open until right before take off.  (May not be the case in newer planes.) 

And sometimes it takes a couple of times to get a good seal on the door so that could be why the front seat passenger had to open and close the door a couple of times. 

Wish that video wasn't so jumpy.

Cirrus. Springdale to Denton, TX, just outside Dallas. 325 miles southwest; 1.5 hours by plane, 5.5 hours by car.

[Kjaerringa]

My headship was a commercial pilot for many years. When we were first married, and he needed to build hours, we would sometimes use a little Cessna 152 from the airport where he taught. He always banged hard on the right seat door to make certain it was properly latched. The doohickey to adjust the fuel mixture looked like it came off a foosball table. It was like flying in an ancient VW Beetle!

I checked out the Sante Center when I was looking into legit rehab facilities. It does have Christian programming, but It also has the least emphasis on that recovery component of any of the region's sex rehab centers.

RU's discipleship school isn't a rehab and  it doesn't advertise itself that way.  It's disingenuous to say Josh is in rehab if he's at RU.  Rehabbing his Christianity, maybe, but not his behavioral health.  There's a world of difference between addressing addiction as sin versus treating a bio-psychosocial disorder.

Would Jill come home to see Blessa's new kid? I'm not sure if it would make sense to go from where ever she is to Dallas, and then have her brother pick her up from there? I've never been to DFW so I am not sure if you can come through immigration there, but assuming you can, maybe that's cheaper/quicker then taking a flight from DFW to Arkansas after coming in?

Maybe she would even come home just for the sake of the TLC show because the baby was born?

the show is over - the specials are filmed  - ain't gonna happen 

#Spurgeonthesurgeon just nailed it 

Jill herself stated in her recent letter to jessa on line that Jessa has to come see her 

so unless that happens and we do get a special on Ben, Baby Stoolpigeon and Jessa all trecking to wherever the hell Jill is for another TLC special - it won't happen
