Wow. I would have definitely put a little more thought/creativity into my "bio" if I had known it was going to get featured in the TalkMail newsletter that showed up in my inbox this morning! :)

after lurking around for a couple months, i've finally joined....hello :D

Hi all -- glad I fly for work a bit. I've been an aviation nerd since I first grabbed my stuffed animals, lined the lot up in lawn chairs, and flew 'em to the Faroe Islands (which I thought were tropical) when I was 5. Gotten a lot of helpful tips about UA over the last year; looking forward to more, and adding a few once in awhile.

I'm Paul and I live in Rye NH just off of the beach. I'm 52, married (25 years) and have three children. 1 son at Vtech and 2 daughters in high school. I also have one huge dog (Newfie) and one large dog (Lab).

I'm the CTO of a technology company the creates custom software for big coporate IT shops and product engineering for large ISV's.

My client are through out the US, I travel to meet with them on a regular basis. We also do engineer work in both the US and China, I spend a lot of time tarvelling back and forth to China. I'm writing this note from Suzhou China. I'm on a lot of planes usually about over 300k miles per year, mostly Usair domestically and Asian airlines to Asia.

The name's Lowender1234. It's a reference to 4-stringed electric bass, which I play a bit. What drew me here was an interest in planes and travel in general even though I don't fly all that much compared to you guys probably. Couple flights a year, tops. I used to be aerophobic, but I conquered it about 3-4 years ago. Good to be here!

Welcome to FT

Welcome to FlyerTalk!

Don't worry too much about the lingo; we were all new to the site once and I think you'll find folks are willing to help bring you up to speed.

The following may be of help, however:

Thanks, that is just what I was looking for

Hi-I do help desk work for a large company. I joined this site in 2007 so I could read all about the now legendary US mistake fare to ART. Since then, I have taken great advantage of the tips and tricks of the frequent traveler and saved lots of time and money!

Hi all,

I am a long time lurker who just joined.

I am 24 (nearly 25) years old, and live in Richfield MN, right under one of the MSP flight paths. I am currently a laborer for a non-profit charitable organization.

My dad and his side of the family live in LAX and ORD, so I travel for leisure at least once a year, and am always looking for new trip ideas, especially overseas!

Trips planned this year so far are LAX in a few weeks, hopefully MDW this summer (want to try WN and see my Twins play the Cubs!), and TLV later this fall.

I have been an airline buff for as long as I can remember. I love to read about the history of the industry and keep up with the current happenings.

Two reasons I joined here: To keep my eye out for new services and deals, and I just got tired of the amateurish, backbiting environment of a certain other large forum.

N153US:
Welcome. You will find if you are like alot of us you will spend to much time here. More info on FT than most of us could ever absorb, or at least speaking for me anyway.

Hello everyone!
I have visited flyertalk on and off for the past couple of years and I finally decided to join. I and from Oregon and am currently going to college for computer science. I love to fly too!

Well I finally found this sort of page... FT is huge and it took an overnight in STL for me to see all these "new" pages.

My information can be found in my profile. I think that I filled it out fairly complete. If you have anything else you need or want to know about me... ask, I am an open book.
