At least they're taught about their history. It's pretty sad that you have to take a college course on the American Revolution and Civil War just to learn about it. In Western Civilization and US History courses they're just mentioned.

And, culturally, they revere their elderly and believe that wisdom lies therein. Ask any US teenager if s/he thinks that is true.

I don't revere anyone because they are old. I revere and respect people that deserve to be respected. Living more than 60 years isn't impressive in and of itself.

Wrong, you show respect to everyone. I bet u don't disrespect your pax even though they haven't "earned" it. Big talker!

Respect everyone you meet until they give you reason to revoke it. It's easy to maintain respect. It's quite difficult to earn it back.

Time to get the train back on the rails. Does any US mainline or otherwise have any orders for these aircraft? Seems like no one would have a use for them given almost every legacy carrier is upgaging their routes.

As a friend in HKG says, "they get along as long as they are making money, take the money away and everybody in Asia will killing each other".
