Hey Bar, that is an interesting letter, and it clarifies a lot of things for me, and I must admit I tend to agree with it. To whomever said that it would create disharmony in the cockpits, that seems pretty spot on.

Just as an aside for everyone's info. I am in the Collierville Baptist Hospital today, and my mom is the proud new owner of titanium hip #2. She broke it on Saturday to start the process, but was previously scheduled to get one today anyway. She just decided to complicate the process. The saw bones just left our room, and gave me the story. She's in recovery now and should be back "online" in a few hours. 2 weeks or so of rehab and she'll be good to go. I had an experience with orthopedics back in the early 90s, and they are even more amazing today. Ahhhh, if I could go back to my early 20s ya'll probably wouldn't know tsquare. So anyway, if my posts today have been a little off axis, that's why, but this place is a nice distraction from even that kind of stress.

Everybody fly safe and be careful out there.
