I have heard we MIGHT be ordering Space Shuttles for service to the Moon from Jan 3rd, 2033. Since that aircraft is already flying and in production, (compared to the 787), we SHOULD get credit in any SLI. The 787 has never flown, and now is delayed again an additional 6 months. If this order rumor is true, we should get credit. I remember being TOLD in my newhire indoc in '96 that I COULD EXPECT TO BE A SPACE SHUTTLE COMMANDER BY THE TIME I HIT AGE 59 1/2. I EXPECT any SLI to reflect that. I also want a Moon base, and I will avoid trips to Uranus---since NWA guys probably would enjoy that run a lot more and have been servicing it for years already, just ask any ex Republic guy.


Bye Bye--General Lee

You didn't read the small print, the space shuttle has less than 76 seats so you won't be flying them after all.
 
General: Don't forget to produce a Captain's Log for payroll purposes and make sure your TCAS is set to show the Klingons circling Uranus.
 
Maybe.....

Maybe, just maybe.....
Fate could smile on us and your sorry butt could get sucked into a black hole..... Even tools like you would get turned into spaghetti....

I declare shenanigans. I came up with the moon joke three days ago here. General Lee even quoted me. Have you finally run out of things to say General? I think mine was funnier anyway.:D


Delta's "executive vice-president for network planning and revenue management" has "informally asked" Boeing to "enable the airline to serve Australia directly from the US East Coast" and this is news?

Here's a headline for you.

DrewBlows asks Embraer for ways to modify the EMB175 to enable Compass Airlines to fly from DTW to the moon.

Print that.
