I bet that hotel van driver will never try to leave a DC-9 crew with a 9 hour layover at the airport again.

I particularly like the backflip off of the car after the other guy grabs the driver. Few things are more bad@$$ than an impatient newK and his minions trying to get to the layover.

I imagine that is coming.

She typically ends up laughing as hard as me, thankfully. "IT WAS ME!!!"

That's how DC-9 crews roll. Don't mess with them....

Thanks for the help with the imbedding of that vid 80K. Look up Sh!t Southern Girls Say on you tube, you'll get plenty of advice on how to speak southernees.

I'm on my way up to New Hampshire for my Mom's 80th bday party. I've got to get my NH accent on, or my 5 siblings will be raggin on me! I'll practice on the flight up...

Ike Bub, was that Pats game last night wicked piza or what?!

That Brady's a feeg!

Anybody heard any rumblings about an additional widebody order? There was something mentioned along those lines on the forum that shall not be named...

I don't know but I did hear from a good source the Airbi' order was a definite maybe growth.

And the march is on to a total 757 fleet of 60-70 airplanes or a little more than 90 757s being parked with the 739s are their replacements.

Oh and we're extremely profitable. Extremely.

Yes, but I think that's for aircraft(replacement/growth?) that won't be coming until 2018 and beyond. This 10 A330 order is a bridge until we get the next gen of A350, B787 and/or B777X.
