Well what the heck – even though my Wi-Fi availability will initially be a bit spotty over the next couple of days, let’s go ahead and get a few questions out here anyway. This set does come with a caveat, however. To wit, the practice of abandoning questions that I wrote about a couple weeks back – I’ve decided to address it as follows:

So long as any participant has an unanswered question out there, meaning one that they initiated the answer process on, regardless of whether it was a single question response or part of a double question response – they will thereafter be limited to just ONE new question per day UNTIL they have made at least TWO additional attempts to answer the unanswered question.

You guys are amongst the best and the brightest in this particular field of esoterica, so I’m expecting your answers to be specific. No scatter shot “either/or” type responses, please. Additionally, your second and third responses need not be correct. You just need to make an honest effort to finish what you started. Should someone else swoop in with the correct answer before you’ve submitted your second or third response, your obligation to that question is thereby satisfied and you are free to resume two per days. If you subsequently miss on the first go-round on another question, the whole process starts all over again. Again, the driving factor here is to make an honest effort to finish what you started.

Other than that, just a reminder that we are variant specific with answers here. As such, we require more detail than a simple “DC-8, DC-9, 727 or 737” answer, given that each model has some significant size differences between certain variants. Obviously, we’re not going to quibble between a DC-9-30/40 or a 737-100/200 but I think you all get my drift here. We do expect to see a 747SP indicated as such, but won't quibble over 747-100/200/300/400
