Plymouth take to skies for Norwich City trip
Argyle earned a point against Watford on Friday via Andre Gray's late equaliser

Plymouth Argyle will fly to their Championship away match at Norwich City on Tuesday.
The 700-mile round-trip is one of the longest away journeys Argyle face this season - only Sunderland is further.
It takes around an hour for a flight from Exeter airport to Norwich, rather than around eight or nine hours in a coach.
The team will fly up on Monday and return on Wednesday for the game, which kicks off at 19:45 GMT on Tuesday.
"We had to be in the air by 11pm after the game, and there was no way we'd have done that, so we're going to stay over and then fly back Wednesday morning," head coach Wayne Rooney said after his side's 2-2 draw with Watford on Friday.
"It's good for us to be flying, but whether it was flying or by coach, we have to prepare right and make sure we do the best to try and get a result."
