October 28, 1977
Healy and March track Amelia to the Burbank Airport Western Hotel. John Boy finds Amelia and shoots and kills her. Healy and March get arrested. March: Your note, look at it. It's not a flight. Every airport has an overflight curfew from 10:00 to 6:00, Burbank included. And that top number is today's date but reversed like the European way, which makes sense when you look at FLT and you think it's not "flight," it's probably "flat," like apartment.
