*Dumb question alert*

I'll probably be ridiculed by the most loyal APCF posters, but is there a 330 in charter configuration? Or do they just charter the airplane and fill the rest of the 200 seats with loyal fans......errr.......contributors?

When a plane is chartered, it is rarely filled... the group chartering the plane pays for the full cost of the plane whether it be for 1 person or 300. Only a few 319's are in the "NBA config."

On the 767 charters I've flown the first class was filled and usually there was aways one seat in between each passenger in coach.

To my knowledge we only have A319's specifically configured for charter. If a team uses a 767/330/747 they just fill the seats that they need. Football teams carry a lot more equipment so they usually need the larger aircraft, but they don't fill all of the seats.

I flew the Arizona Cardinals back to Phoenix after their Superbowl loss. Every seat was filled (330) About 25,000 people were there to meet us. Pretty cool if you ever get the chance to do one of these

Correct. This one is probably half to 3/4rs full. Players, staff, doctors, and family may on a charter. A full NFL team can fit in a 757 with the middle seats open.

This question has more than likely been answered a half dozen times in the 58,407 posts on this thread. Assuming a half dozen answers in 58,407 posts, it has then been viewed a minimum of 516 times in the 1,159,533 views.

Anyway, why is it my Mac doesn't open PDF documents on Deltanet when I use Firefox, but when I open the link using Safari, it opens it with no problem at all? Simple change of setting, or is it a compatiblity issue between Deltanet & Firefox?

Thanks for the responses in advance,

GJ

I'm doing an initial systems cd. All of the sudden it stopped working. Who do I call? I get an authorware error message.
