I still miss the old fashioned appropriate technology small pamphlet timetables that PMNW printed and distributed at airports. Among other things, it included distance (in miles) as well as equipment type in every one-line entry. Now when booking on line, it's hard to verify and compare the MQMs that will be earned for various routings.
Since something like this is now considered too expensive and too hard to keep up to date (which wasn't a problem with PMNW IME), EF was the best substitute, but of course that is gone too now.
