Sounds like he needs to build one of the wooden supersonic experimental planes that look kinda like a BD-5. Then you can get theee REALY FAST. Thought it was kinda interesting, it has two control sticks. One for sub sonic, and one for super sonic speeds.
Me personally, I would buy some wireless noise cancelling headphones and download a couple of good unabridged audio books. Or install KODI on my iPhone and find a series I haven't seen and binge watch it.
Undestand the American Airlines Captains Club is a really nice lounge at DFW.
I have dropped friends off at Will Rodgers in OKC and picked them up as they walked out to catch a cab at DFW. Was in my 87 AMC Jeep Cherokee. Freaked them out! Don't know how fast...the speedo only went to 85mph and it was pegged most of the time. Was cruising with a Vette and a Golf GTI. Would have flown with my friends, but had an ear infection and doc said whatever I did, do not fly or I will very painfully regret it. Ended up being kinda fun.
Google says a flight from OKC to DEW takes 58 minutes. Of course that does not include security, boarding, unboarding, and crossing the DFW airport from the gate to the taxi area.
One of those friends got a new Acura Integra RS. We left OKC 2 hours before he was supposed to make a presentation at the Infomart in Dallas, 215 miles. We made it with a few minutes to spare. i slept from OKC to the Texas border because I had been up all night making the powerpoint. Once I woke up couldn't sleep any more. Him driving that fast was very unsettling because he tailgated and shot the gap way too many times.
