So if I was sitting there, with paperwork, I'd feel pretty pathetic to say "waiting 30 minutes prior" before entering the flight plan in, in order to save 3 minutes of inputs.
But, hey it's there!! I'm sure many will love it.
Maybe one day we can upload our correct pay credits and see them as well!!!
That was something I hadn't thought of. 30 mins prior may be a bit too late as plugging in the flight plan takes just a minute or two.
Stock buy backs are a way of "giving back" to investors. Not only does the company reduce the amount of shares available to the public (which has the knock on effect of adding value to the remaining shares and increasing P/E ratios), but usually uses it to avoid excessive cash on hand problems. The ability to buyback shares is a "big confidence boost" for Wall Street analysts as well.
