  • a lot of TW flights with completely erroneous info for the era (geek/FTer-specific knowledge, something like a 100-series flight number to somewhere in Europe; should have been 700/800/900-series)
That's annoying to hear this. Airline geeks deserve better! Clearly the people who put the board together had neither care nor clue...
