I voted against the 737 LOA due to no home basing. With home basing the 737 program would've been tolerable. Without.....well I think that has been beaten like a dead horse on here.

And yes....if you are a prima donna, whined, need your hand held, can't fly....then don't apply to any ACMI carrier.
Welp, um... yeah. After all these years, all I can say is, crap. I got nuthin. Birdstrikes and I are in complete agreement on this one.

Hot damn. What's next???
