Hmmm, the 767-300 with the big motors and winglets. Had one on my last 76 leg and was temped to dry hump the gear strut on the walk around before the last flight. Never flown a better airplane.

Now the MD88, that's another story. What an unmitigated steaming pile of dog squeeze. There, it has been said.

Damn Bar,

I just spit coffee all over my iPhone. The Dude has done it again. Excellent work my friend.

More 76 seat jets.

Form the questions correctly

It is tonight from 6-8. Check Dalnet for location.

My schedule is not going to allow me to attend any of these road shows, so in addition to asking about these topics, could someone please post a good debrief? Thanks in advance.

V/R, TC

Also, could someone ask if management proposed putting Compass on mainline? (I hear credible confirmations & denials... it'd be nice to know)

I would but IMO only management can divulge any of this as most of it is covered under a NDA on some level. Ya know that competitive advantage, trade secret stuff.......

No problem, perhaps you can post some more TX cheerleader pictures as payment???
