No joke, I didn't realize we had auditors for the FM information.

I found my error, it was a moment of dyslexia. I've fixed the tail number in both the PB and my own FM.

Someone earlier complained about Aretha Franklin's performance at the inauguration. She wasn't lost. She was singing with all her heart! Watch it for yourself!

Oh -- and I liked her hat too :p

That was not the same version of the song I heard on TV during the live broadcast. I'm sure it sounded much better on the Mall than on TV. It seems normal for something to sound great to a live audience but sounds like crap on TV (Live 8 was a great example of that)

Anything you post in the Penalty Box FM is subject to audit and verification by the PWP. But don't let that stop you from entering your data there. If you don't, we will hunt you down and make you do it.

As for cleaning up Penalty Box FM data, I've made the following edits to registration numbers that were missing:
  • jrzyshawn on CO1469 on 18-JAN-2009.
  • gbryan84 on CO1708 on 17-JAN-2009.
  • gbryan84 on CO0633 on 17-JAN-2009.
  • jrzyshawn on CO0768 on 13-JAN-2009.

I just did last week. They wanted to use a picture that I took of a CO 738 wing/engine from 4F. The odd part is that they wanted to use it for a story on the US crash in the Hudson. It didn't seem to fit at all but my curiosity got the best of me and I allowed them to use it. It just shows up in a small slide show on the news story.

Same thing for me - I happened to post a photo of the US Arizona Cardinals plane in response to another thread on the US board and they wanted it for the same article. Other than it being a US plane, didn't really seem to fit the theme.

Still sitting here in FRA. The tug seems to have damaged the nosegear during the push. :rolleyes:

CO 1E Jan 21, 2009 3:51 am

Now going back to the gate - this does not look good.

Yes, I think my judgment has gotten the better of me and that I will defer ordering the new BMW.
