Well I can certainly offer the standard FT greeting: "Let's meet for a drink".

I live in Tokyo, am a UA flyer and my e-mail address is in my profile here on FT so drop a note and perhaps I can assist in a face to face Q&A here over a few drinks or cups of coffee. Lots of hours of your searching and backtracking in threads here on FT can likely be compacted into a an hour or two of chatting. Can get you pointed in the right direction anyway.
