LGA $3.6B terminal expansion... for the other airlines.

Evidently, according to this picture, we'll run into the buildings when using the taxiways.

La Guardia Terminal Update Sought - WSJ.com

But I have a better idea. Call it the Scambo idea.

First, we bulldoze all but the main terminal building, no more arms/legs/extensions and jetways. Now let the airlines fight for the few gates that are left.

Then bulldoze everything on the south side of Grand Central Parkway to Astoria Blvd. We can use that to build a grand terminal and parking area. Sadly for RJs, but just maybe one day mainline jets!!!!!!

Then build a walkway from our terminal in LGA to our terminal in JFK.

Some of you are talking about viewing this thread on a plane or at the airport, which reminds me of a time I rode in the back on Virgin America. The flight attendants are great about comping food and movies to jumpseaters, and on one particular 4+ hour flight I decided to check out the HBO On-Demand selection. Game of Thrones was listed, which I haven't seen but heard good things about - so I started watching.

About fifteen minutes into the show a scene occurs where some lord is in his bedchamber, going to town on a woman. It left nothing to the imagination! So here I am, in a middle seat, in uniform, desperately trying to change the channel, while the guy next to me is snickering. Yikes!

It's actually interesting to me that Virgin America doesn't censor some of the shows. There's a lot you can watch (Californication, for example) that has the potential to offend people around you, including those seated in the row behind or across the aisle. I learned a good lesson that day!

If we get Ipads, and since Ipads have GPS and map functions, can we use it and can we use the No Ghetto option?

If so, how will this effect our DTW operations? Discuss.

Discussion over.

Just realized we'd not be able to go to a vast majority of our airports. Thanks.

ATL and DTW330 Feb Bid Packets Revised due to (censored). Bid deadline moved to 16Jan.

There go a bunch of good crashpads. Well, maybe not good, but close to LGA.

So if I can get past the auto-delete you won't give me an infraction??? ;)

Buzz,

If you, Carl, Ferd, FTB, and all others who make my airport standby a little bit easier are leaving, please let the rest of us that lurk know.

Thank you,

The Chow

or maybe some vicious headbutting....

that avatar still cracks me up

What iaflyer said. Also, don't forget that there is an easy way to inform CS of your deadhead on the back end. Call the VRU and go to crew tracking. One of the options for if deviating from deadhead. You just press the number, and CS is informed without you having to talk to anybody. Quick and easy.

I was ready to quit this place forever over these self aggrandizing, prude, worthless, Mods ... but then you post your brilliance and I'm sucked right back in.

Still think we should consider moving, or setting up our own server. I'll give you some seed money, or an 80386 with a math co-processor running a hacked Linux build to get you started.
