Early Xmas Present for Herb

SWA has until Christmas even to replace the parts. Aircraft are not grounded.

Here is Reuters Story

The back story , so I am told, is that the FAA knew about this for several years and only brought the issue to light last week. There is a reason that SWA has more lawyers than other airlines.
