I'd think the 764 and 7ER would combine easier and they haven't done that yet.

Have heard our POI says if we came to them to get combined category status today with our mish-mash 757-200/300(Delta/NW/TWA/China) 767(ER/GulfAir/4 different engine types) the answer: NO WAY!

I'm guessing but I'd think multiple categories is better for us when it comes to staffing, no? I also understand that without a speed tape on the PFD they won't do a common category between 756 and 764, whereas CAL had that and does have a 752, 753, 762, 764 common category.



I've always thought that they should engineer a touch screen FMS where the entire face is a touch screen like an Ipad.

The only problem with the idea can be summed up in one word, technology.

I'm unimpressed with the in-network providers. Not top-tier. The number of frames covered by they plan are very limited. Not sure about 2014 cost.

I'm in a small town - only one optometrist (I've gone to him and he's pretty good) and he is in network - so that's not a problem - just trying to figure out if the cost is enough to justify taking the insurance and using it or just paying out of pocket with FSA dollars.

If I don't use the whole FSA, I go in for a new pair of glasses that year.
