Mileage run guru wanted
 
Is there an AC mileage run guru out there who would enjoy a challenge? I would love to talk with someone who knows their way around, as I try a (frankly, insane) idea out. :)

PM me if you would be interested in helping/mentoring me as I sketch things out.

Thanks,
T

Is it a secret? I want to know! Or maybe it's YQ dumping... hm... :o
One more thing: why would you run for Aeropesos? :confused:

I figured my idea might be so crazy as to be met with derision :)

Wanted to bounce it off an expert first.

It still may be crazy ;)

Either way you will be judged; might as well post it here to maximise feedback; perhalps many people have better ideas than 1...

By definition, people on FT are not normal relative to society at large. Your idea may be crazy by normal standards but may not be by FT ones.

I suggest you just post and get the benefit of the FT Collective working for you.

OP, the crazier it is, the better! You must realize this "support group" we have going here exists in part because it makes us feel better about our own crazy obsessions...

Many of us here are nuts anyways. I have done so many mileage runs, runs that scare off others or won’t even be consider by some which I have been “criticized” or made fun of by others, but hey it does not faze me as when I become supreme commander of Earth, I will remember these people :D.

Life is too short, got to have fun and experience what you can and don’t let those who are afraid of living life scare you off. :)

This is a forum where purchasing $3100 of chocolate pudding or flying YVR-YUL via MEX is not only considered rational, but virtuous.

You'll have a hard time coming up with a scheme that anyone would think was "crazy."

I can vouch for that... I upgraded Herpa on FIVE flights to get him from one large Canadian city to another large Canadian city!
