Thanks, "clipped." It's nice getting "Welcomes," and I'm looking forward to working with you guys. You'll easily know who I am from my name on here. I think it's going to be a great change of pace for me, "the wife," and my kids! My better half is glad I won't be flying anywhere that has 3 or 4 syllables and ends in "stan."

BlueHen, I hope your number comes up for a call soon!

I was around when my current employer had DC-9s, but never got over to that side(all got parked in the early 2000's) Of the guys still around that flew them have told me I'll really enjoy the MD-80.
