That's the best thing about the -700s and the new -800s we just got....the toilet seat stays up!! Finally, a design that works.

Speaking of that, what did they say, 8000 people get laid off when the last one goes?

There have already been a bunch that have gone from being rocket engineers to grounds maintenance guys... More to follow for sure. On the bright side, if any of you rich airline pilots want to buy waterfront property, come on down to Brevard County Florida... home of world famous Cocoa Beach.. good prices to be had for riverfront homes and even some ocean front..

Yes. Love it. Love.

Never knew how miserable I was shoved into the 737 cockpit for 10 years.

I'll leave the -88 when you pry it from my cold, dead hands.

Beware anytime someone sends you a link to a YouTube video that's 3:32. It's gonna be a Rick Roll 9 times out of 10. Wish I had known that a year ago before I called my 4 yr old into the office to watch an "exclusive Cars 2 preview". Now I'll have to pay for therapy...

And it'll be til 11pm before I can open this screen up again...

But til then:

DALLAS (TheStreet) -- Faulty capacity planning is costing American Airlines(AMR_) $1 billion annually, according to a controversial new report by a veteran airline analyst.

In the report released Monday, Avondale Partners analyst Bob McAdoo said American could improve its annual results by $1 billion simply by bringing its worst markets to break-even. "More important than its costs are AMR's capacity decisions, its market selection and its unwillingness to halt or reduce flying in markets that are losers," he said.
