Default P.U.B. events

Anyone attend one of the PUB events? I just got a voicemail about one in my area. Is it worthwhile to attend?

Hey Mac & Firefox Masters,

I did it again, I updated Firefox to Version 11.0, now my computer will not open pdf files from I-crew. Do I need to update Adobe for this to work or should I just delete Firefox and file the older version to load again? Thanks in Advance.

The ones in LA and SAN, from what I hear, were well worth it. Lots of good info, free beer and apps. The presentation was relayed to me and it was very informative. They don't, of course, want it posted on public forums. I wish I'd gone.

Interesting statistic, we've shrunk half of a "Northwest" since the merger:


I'm sure someone will come along and say it was only 46% and some percentage were RJ's, but "half" is easier to remember.

Another way to look at it was that Delta "grew" 31% on merging with Northwest. But when the merger happened NWA was 80% of Delta's size, measured by departures.

The question will be as maintenance and fuel costs send 50 seaters to the desert, "who will perform this flying" ?

The airplane was sent to a remote corner of the runway, huh? Must have been one helluva long and wide runway.

We really need a APCF shared toy box.
FWIW, those fine folks have also ressurected the smaller Great Lakes biplane.

The one I saw at SnF was in Auburn colors.
