It looked like a good deal to me, and a much better use of my time than spending thirty hours in MKC. I hope they come back with the C44 suggestions attached plus a few other protections.
Oh I feel confident it will be back... as evidenced by the number of hard core DALPA supporters arguing in favor of it. Sounds to me like the company really wants these things, and by golly we've got to keep RA happy!
So we'll get them. The company will have their problem solved and, oh by the way, even though we know why you want to bid these, don't fly fatigued (wink, wink, nod, nod).
