Why go left around a storm and get the crap beat out of you, when everyone ahead went right and got a smooth ride? The more info I have, the better.

We all know the storms moved out of your way once they saw newK coming. :D

I generally shoot for the upwind side of a cell.

Bypass-furlough pilots will return as part of "recall" classes before any of those new-hire pilot classes. Up to 203 possible.
