I suggest if we're doing overflights that we go after the Pacific with the giganto-poodle's much hotter younger sister:



Alright, we need to think this through.

Kate Upton stands 5'10" and bra size is... well, I don't know. There was a comment section on one website where guys said DD and women said, no C cup at best, she's skinny and so they look better. Thank you google.

But with those kind of dimensions I have to think she is less A350 and more 777-300. She's also American so American = Boeing. Works.

So you need a model from France, Germany, the United Kingdom or Spain. Or all of the above. And she needs to be tall but not flat like an Olympic skater.

Let me see.... OH GOUGE MY EYES OUT... forgot to put French female model... got one... does this work?



I don't think so either, the A350 looks like fun, not mean.

Here you go 80, Emma Stone.



She looks like a European consortium and just like the A350, most guys think there's a chance. Works.

As to the A380...



Once that tide starts rolling it just keeps going and going and going.

Steenland was the head when the order was announced but Richard was there when the discussions were on-going with Boeing. I've heard Richard refer to "we ordered" the 787 when at Northwest. But, yes, interesting dichotomy.

Guys, can you please help with a PCS question.

I'm trying to Personal Drop multiple trips tomorrow. If I put them all on the "priority one" line of the menu, is it "all or nothing" or will it drop individual trips even if it can't drop all of them?

Also, is it possible to drop a carry-out trip if the days in this bid period have adequate coverage?

Thanks!

All or nothing if on the same line. You may want to make cascading drop requests if you would take some.

Priority 1-8 The screen allows backward and forward scrolling entering 8 priorities. The automated leave process will attempt to award a request based on the data in priority 1. The process will either award all or none of priority 1. If priority 1 can not be awarded, priority 2 will be considered. If priority 2 can not be awarded, the automated process will move to priority 3, etc. until one is awarded or all priorities have been considered.


Yes, it is now possible to drop a carry-out trip if there is adequate coverage in the current month.

This is her last performance on Olympic Ice. There had been some fall out between her father and her Coach. She pressed on into the Salt Lake games without a coach. The song choice is astounding, given the circumstances ... she knew this was farewell ... there wasn't a dry eye in the place.

The sport changed on her mid career (sound familiar to us?). She came up during the final days when balance, grace, style and beauty made for winning marks. The sport moved on to greater athleticism, tricks, triples which favors the kids. Now someone wins a medal, and you never hear their name again.

They know more than you and 11,000 pilots will ever know. They have all the inside data. If you believe otherwise, you are totally clueless and naive. Good luck finding your windmill.

No no... we can force them to fly into unprofitable markets just to keep an aging hub operational. Besides, we absolutely know what is really going on behind the numbers. They just lie about it all. And I'm gonna personally force Mr Anderson to put KBP back on the schedule. We'll make tons of money right up to the time that we go out of business. Profit sharing... bah!
