Besides, Carl. What language is it that you write in? Are you published? Or, are you a bitter old former NWA captain who just can't accept that your reality has changed? Somebody moved your cheese, right? Get over yourself. You have 12,000 fellow brothers and sisters who are going through the same ****. We're really not all out to get you.

We all have our prisms Carl. You claim that we can't see beyond ours. You, most definitely, can't see beyond yours.

No kidding. One of the above posters is a published author writing books based on historical facts and one is an old airline pilot.

You make good posts. We should name them, something that rhymes, like Scoop Poop. Maybe not that one exactly...

Well, the first quarter of 2010 didn't go well with our profits coming from one airline. Here's hoping for the rest of 2010.

I've got no data either, but I think they said 2Q-4Q would be better cost savings.

iphones allow you to post on the van, post in the security line, post at the gate, post while walking down the jetbridge, post whil... post as you walk back up the jetway, post as you wait for a van, post as you wait to sign in at the hotel...

I think they achieved that in 2010.

There is a new VOL 1 btw on the 88, if you're in ATL swing by and pick a copy up. But by december there might be another one. I'm just dieing to go read mine, might do it tonight.

60% of the time I'm with you every time.



That looks like a well planned syncronized attack on an unsuspecting target.

The girl on the left is wearing some bad idea jeans. As is the person taking the picture?

The other ones are in a holding pattern.
