As many have said, "Getting that four year degree was the best 6 years of my life!"

True story. While attending college, I took advantage of a foreign exchange program to Sweden. The best time of my single life. To be 21 and living in Sweden as a American. Let's just say opportunities were everywhere. Anyhow, I digress. The university had a international flavor and something always seemed odd with the group of guys from Italy. I mean these guys had 12 o'clock shadows going on everyday by noon. My original thought was that Italians sure grow scruf in a hurry.

Late one night after several home brews I start talking to one of the Italian guys. I asked him what university they are from in Italy. He proceeds to tell me that all the Italian guys already had college degrees and enrolled for another semester to travel to Sweden for the exchange program. At the time I was thinking this was brilliant and revolutionary. These guys were in their late 20's, already with college degrees in hand and decided to return for 1 semester to Sweden for the cultural events.... That and in their words Italian women being very catholic limited their opportunities, so to speak.

185
164

167
170
168
166
173
150
147
134

The most senior pilot had a raw of 150.

To all those who predicted junior guys flying their A$$ of and senior guys sitting at home - I still have not seen it.

Cute, but without a SNB aircraft no additional dual class large RJ's, and we have still locked the ability to get above current Cap with the previous 3:1 ratio mainline threshold. If 717 were not to come another SNB aircraft could fulfill that role, as in the previously studied 319's. We are protected either way.
