That's too simple. Where's the drama?

ftb- Max and Erma's is by far my favorite in DTW. My stomach yearns at the thought of a sante fe chicken salad.

...and their tortilla soup is unreal.

My "little graph" is based on the IAAC's graph, it's just the portion covered by the current compliance period starting April 2011.

The summer schedules 2013 are pretty much set (you have to load flights in advance after all to sell the tickets) for winter these are the projections of the IAAC.

Simply reaching 50% doesn't cause a "reset."
It's the average that has to reach 50% on a 3-year lookback.

There is a provision in 1.P.4 Note Two that let's the company start a new 3-year compliance window if we reach 49.75% on a 12-month lookback, maybe that's what you had in mind?

Cheers

Online Cafe. Stuffed Pepper Soup. They have a crew menu and if I remember correctly, all you can eat pancakes in the morning!

You can phone in your order from the airplane and walk to pick it up ready 10 minutes later. Good employee deals.

How far out on final do you usually call them? At the Marker? Or would it be better to wait for the flare? I don't want cold pancakes, and I sure as he!! don't want to wait in line when I get there!

Call when you block in. Do the paperwork or walk around, then head on over. It will be perfect.

Wait! You are on the 777, aren't you? You don't eat airport food!

I've always wanted to try that, but Max and Erma's is so close that I can't keep myself away!
