>>>>Wow... sounds like the prop sync was deferred...

The strangest thing in 3A was the really loud, ripping metallic buzz that would happen when I put my arm on the left armrest--everybody around could easily hear it.


>>>>>>>That looks to be MEM at gates A33 or A19...

Yes--MEM at A19. Chatanooga, Paducah, Alexandria--all the best-named cities depart there.

It was my once annual Saab trip to Laffy to pick up a carry-on full of boudin and andouille. LOVE that aircraft--thedense groaning, roaring, dipping, bobbing pile of metal that it is. V., the flight attendant MEM-LFT, also loves it--she says she doesn't like CRJ's and also the new CRJ900 because they are FA awkward and unfriendly. She will be going for her pilot's license soon and hopes to be flying one! Photographing the toilet was the least bit of homage one can attempt.


>>>>>>I hope you were above 10,000 feet before turning on your portable electronics...

Well, I've never heard it called THAT before!
