But, reading this made me wonder............Jal is in the other terminal in NRT. NRT is a HUDGE airport, moving people back and forth with our new partners will be a new logistical puzzle. A terminal swap with UAUA?

The devil is in the details. And the next detail is another cup of coffee

Like the critical thinking Ferd. I am sure that will be dealt with if needed.

Ah, with the age 65 rule you guys get to fly with my crusty butt for years to come. In all reality though, enjoy your kids as they grow up way fast.

Agreed.

On the others:
1) Kid loves diapers.
2)We all hate the car seat.
3) Momma works.....

It never ceases to amaze me how pilots manage to find new words to misspell. "Huge" is four letters for crying out loud. How does someone mess that up?

It is British, Queen's English if you will!

Pilots suck as spellers.

They can have them all, as far as I'm concerned.

It's easy....my wife with her masters in reading explains it as no phonics. I grew up with "see dick run, run dick run". Sight reading, no phonics. A whole generation of men my age that don't spell well, drove my secretary in the USAF crazy. In fact, on my masters degree comp (I know, a what? not Ferd) one of the readers commented that someone at this level should be able to spell better.......but he still passed me

Me too buddy, me too! I just hope we are giving them 900's. My worry is that we will give them 700's. That will make more room for that stretch dealie

Agreed.

<----- Smart (kind of) but cannot spell worth a darn. Still need to remind myself of those little sayings like, "I before E except after C."
