And I forgot about the conspiracy of the short release. You know the thing that your mecs guys thought we were making up to inflate our 330 performance numbers. And we had to elementarily explain, in a oh my god you've got to be kidding me fashion, that long haul flights use the rerelease method to reduce the 10% international fuel requirement, thus needing less fuel per leg. And less fuel needed etc. Do I need to go on?

But what does northwest know about short releases? We've only been flying to asia since the forties.
