It's all friendly banter. Maybe Cheerleader Chuck and I have the same favorite agent.

Wow, there are some serious flyers here.
So far I've been able to get 22.756 miles, with another transcon tomorrow, I'll reach Plat. by end of April and then make a dash for Exp. never reached it before, but perhaps this year it'll work.

As much as I would like to say that I have my own "issues" with some of the OP's posts as well, I'm sure there are many others in the FT community that feel the same way about mine. So, that said, and back on topic, 67K BIS already, 120K booked thru October, EXP requal due on 4/30 CLT-DFW-SEA... I'm taking the summer off.

Doing lousy. So far for 2005 I've got 0 miles on AA, and only 666 actual miles booked. But I have a whopping 4500 (no, I'm not missing any 0s) MQMs on Delta if anyone cares.

I've got 26k miles on what I consider flying a lot. I'm constantly amazed at some of the numbers put up by the FT community. Anyway I hope to make EXP this year but as it looks like my flying might slow for awhile may be another PLT year for me.

62K points after tomorrow.
One to NRT & one to SIN in April should put me over.

34K miles so far. Booked 87K through 6/2. Somehow, EXP won't be too ahrd after that. Might have to do some burning later in the year. Sitting on too many.
Cheers.
