Ah whatever, if I win, I'm taking FTB airplane shopping.. That thing looks like a flying speed brake.

Default RESCIND the Preliminary Awards

I can't believe no one brought this up today. I received a text message at 0842 CST saying the bids have been posted and then 5 hours later I get another text message saying "The preliminary awards for your category have been rescinded as of 1415E."

Was that for everyone or just the ER?

I bet the one with round engines leaves bigger oil stains in your driveway.

Is the kangaroo's nickname "OutBack Door"...?

Their relationship with management even though it was contentious, always led to better contracts than everyone else in the industry... They always had 3 FOs on every 12+ hour trip...... I could go on, but I have read most of these things on here... numerous times.

Fire away boys...... Jiffy Pop is finished and waiting.

thanx
My guess would be the overfly of NRT... (wow, surely couldn't see that coming.) Which leads to the thought about the 787. Just exactly what do you think that airplane will be doing if it ever comes here, and why are some so excited about it? It was made to kill NRT, or at least a big part of it. 767... longer legs.... hmmmmmmm

Yeah really. I looked all over and couldn't find out anything that made any sense for the drop. At least all the players fell....
