That wouldn't exactly put us "Well above the competition", as the 2015 Huff Daland Prognosticator and Advice for Lonely Aviators Almanac assured us. It's right there on page 1

20 years to get 777 rates back to where they were in the year 2000. Given what inflation is with subdued buying power it should be much higher. Take their new rates and increase by 20%. That would be a nice baseline.

Are you saying you have...

Half Fast internet??

As reported above, MEC just sent out a text blast that you have to uninstall the old DA and then download the new version. I don't use the DA, since my category is so small, it's easy to bid.

ALSO... While we are on the subject with the man himself, "Don't Forget To Bid" your VACATION, first round closes in 4 days. (Jan 8).

I loves me a good ruma now heeya, but (and I'll point it out to save sailing some time) money is the last to be negotiated. I haven't heard that the MEC had given any direction to the negotiating committee, etc., etc.

I will start a new rumor of my own. From my cousins brothers uncles sisters nephew who works at that burrito place 35,10,10,10 done by close of business on 11 may. Doesn't include fully provided health care, untouched profit sharing and maxed out 401k...oh yeah, Heiko reinstated.
