Come on now guys, you KNOW all those RJ's are just "Place Holders", for when we get all the Air Tran 717's...Right?

Yeah, That's the ticket!

I mean, they wouldn't lie to us...again...would they?

Anybody think that maybe they are starting out with large RJ's due to the time of the year & to feel out loads? On my commute we have 6 flights a day year round, which in the summer is usually 4 mainline and 2 large RJ's. In the slower months it's typically 2-3 mainline and 3-4 large RJ's.

Just thinking out loud.

The whole scenes between Cruise and whats her face were just weird. When he left her in the morning he made an origami. Where does one learn to do origami?

Sounds like a 73 thing.

What the hell else are we supposed to do on those red eyes? I'm also working on feng shui.

Cool origami for pilots...



If you were a SWA 737 guy you'd do that a $100 bill, and then burn it.

I'm trying to think, there was a corporate guy that had this awful boss and one day they landed and the guy pulled out a $100 bill, showed it to him, and burned it. Said there's your tip. Walked off.

They're spending a boatload of money refurbishing 20+ year old whales and 7ER's with AVOD and flat-beds. Everything is a cost-benefit analysis. With RA's history, whatever produces the biggest return with the best (least) risk will get the nod for our fleet.
Are you joining the rumor mongerers Slow?

I will say, there aren't a whole lot of MD-90s to be had outside of the Saudi's, which may be the reason they're not acquiring much more. Besides, the 739s might have been a homophone deal.


homophone? thanks Iphone autocorrect. phenomenal was the word I was spelling but it finished the word for me and chose, homophone?
