Happy Thanksgiving bros! Home for the week! The -900 is pretty sweet. The blue lighting is sexy.

As such, those airlines will really be able to pirate the best and most experienced guys for their expansion.

Also, anyone heard from or had sightings of Alfaromeo lately? Realize he had personal loss, but we should make sure, as an (APC) community, he's doing ok.
