I'm reasonable.

I think that's acceptable.

Vandy does not suck, and I will be pulling for them to win this Saturday agin the Deacons...
I do think Franklin has done an amazing amount in a very short period of time. While they'll never be an SEC powerhouse due to the size of the school, I do see bowl eligibility as a possibility next year.

We all know NewK will not cry when the DC-9 is ripped away from him, but I found something we could all pitch in and get him so he doesn't miss it too much. As he might be able to work out his schedule to sit at home and be on APC more it would be sweet that he types his APC messages on this..

DC-9 Airplane Desk | Motoart



Or he could lay his head down on this each night.

Yeah, still gave me problems. Talked to a few MX guys about it and they told me it just has something to do with how some of the older audio panels integrated with the newer ANR headsets that draw power from aircraft to power the noise reduction.

Actually used to be more frequent, now it seems to happen less.

The aircraft headsets seem to work fine in a pinch as long as you don't mind getting ear herpes.

I've wondered the same thing. With the new 3 year plan, it sure looks like we gave the company 3 years of shrinkage opportunity. Did we change our side of the JV language unilaterally?

I am thinking about getting an Android powered Tablet. Does anyone have any experience with it working with iCrew? I know the browser on them are Chrome powered and I know the desktop powered Chrome doesn't work with iCrew. Is there a firefox for tablets? Thanks.

Thinking of getting the Transformer Prime BTW.

Maybe the company should pitch in a get some confortable aircraft headsets.

If you get any of the "newer" tablet with at least Android Honeycomb on it, the stock browser would be fine with icrew. If you got a nook or kindle fire, i just found out there's a mozilla firefox derivative call Aurora that works well with icrew.

The 320 and 330 fleets are all equipped with company Telex 750's and they have an interphone system that works great. I love having an interphone system and not packing my own headset around.

You really want to have that discussion moderator?

Wise up!
