ACL,

I believe the word is "shuttered", as-in closing the shutters.

(Shameless effort to get my 200th post.)

“In February there should be an announcement that has taken four years to pull off,” [AL Gov Riley] said. “There are two places in the United States that build live body aircrafts ... and in mid-February I believe Airbus is going to announce a third and it will be in Mobile, Alabama.”

As to the 767, it's too bad they didn't decide to revamp it with all of the cool stuff of the 787 first. GTF's, no bleed systems, avionics, composites, and so on. Then have a 762, 763 and 764. I mean they do all of this rinky dink stuff on the 737, why not revamp a beloved and known quantity?

I'm not thinking ATL is going to win. Surprised it's not at least closer.

Reserve gurus!

I can see my tentative Sched for 31 Jan. So to bid golden days do I just put in the days I want golden in ecrew or do they have to match x days on my tent schedule?

Thanks!

I took your cue and asked to turn to ABC... denied. Gotta feeling channel 231 is about to come in... hello Food Network. Where is Man vs Food when you need it?

Well now, that's a nifty document there. Thanks for the info.

Ok, so the ones "in the field" (read: giving mx fits) are the 16 that were delivered to DAL in the mid 90's, and the 3 from Hello.

The aircraft waiting on the mod lines are the 11 from China eastern, 5 from SAS/Blue 1 (I must have missed the official memo about those,) and 7 that I can't account for. Anybody know where they're comming/came from?

(why yes, I am sitting short call today! How did you know?)

That is a good question!

You can bid them right now in icrew, it'll accept your bid. If you're talking about putting in golden days for days you don't have off yet, that I don't know.

4th quarter... 42-14. Now 42-21, what if they come back and at least tie. How insanely entertaining would that be? Usually it's college that has these wild games but I remember turning off a Colts game where they came back from 27-10 with 4 min left and won.

Why do an onside now?
