Oh, one last thing.

I've been to f-NWA hubs pre-SOC and post-SOC. Just curious, is it normal to have to wait 3-5 minutes at the gate for the ground crew to get into position, or are they having a work slow down against the f-DAL jets?

No, I'm not being arrogant, disrespectful, mean spirited, or trying to tarnish our red-tail breatheren, because God knows DAL has JFK (what a nightmare).

Operation Repo is faked. I used to watch the show until I figured it out.

I'm afraid my wife might read what I'm typing and realize that show is on. Super, no posting cheerleaders and or semi-dressed coeds between 7-10pm.

I am all about us creating a unified group. There will be differences like the upcoming arbitration, but we NEED to do everything we can to keep them to a minimum.

Got wife on one side and the kid on the other side. The compromise was the computer.

On a side note, BBQ sounds good. I have some dead cow somewhere in the house.

Hmm, haven't been around the domestic system alot recently, but as I remember, DTW was bad usually had to wait, MSP and MEM were usually ready. MSP not so much so, if the Vikings were playing or if it was -1 or below outside. Bet I will find out real soon (going from the 747-200 to the DC-9)...
