It's been so long since there's been any open time to swap with, I can't recall!

I'm trying to swap trips on same days, but I think you can get ahead of the swaps, by dropping first, then white slip, then white slip your original trip if you didn't get the one you wanted....if they run the drops first.

Thanks in advance.

That's correct Timbo. Drops, WS, then swaps. What you are trying to do is the correct sequence.

Also beware that the check in desk in Paris is less than efficient. We had a connection with plenty of time (we thought,) and arrived at the check in desk one and a half hour before departure. The agents were more interested in chatting among themselves than checking in passengers. As a result, we were called up to check our bags right at one hour - "Sorry, the flight is closed." It became the non-rev trip from hell trying to make it home. Give yourself plenty of time in Paris...

The C7 is a major step up from the C6. After driving the C7, I can say it is right up there with the 991 Carrera S. The difference being the 991 still has better steering feel and handling, with a nicer fit and finish. The Vette though is $40K cheaper and definitely cheaper to maintain. Insurance cost is higher on the Vette though.

I'm on the two year waiting list for a 458, but last month, I started looking at airplanes. If you can stretch to get a used Ferrari 430, that is the way to go.

You sure you dudes are pilots? All this talk about Porsches, Ferraris, and Vettes?

HA, some of us have businesses or sugar momma's, how else were we going to finance this flying hobby.

I don't save for retirement either because my business provides enough cash flow to take care of that issue.
