After a pretty rough morning I'm having a "Tell it like it is, Tuesday" -- about 12 hours early.

Is that different from crop dusting?:D

My recent LFT-ATL was supposed to be a CR1. However, when I input N868AS into Airframes.org, the result it spit back would appear to indicate a CR2? Perhaps I just don't know how to decipher entries for CRJs properly.

Hah. Considering the subject matter -- perhaps not.

Not to be confused, however, with tandem plowing.

With 1 to 2 inches coming to NJ tomorrow, I'm sure they'll do it just because.

Well done to you guys for lightening up the curtain thread. I wish I had something witty to add, but you seem to be doing pretty well without the help so I won't force the issue.

In other news, pictures from POS & TAB now online. Not a ton, mostly because there wasn't much to see there. I think the chances of me ever going back to POS are about as close to zero as I can get without saying never. I'd consider going back to TAB for some diving, and BW flies from Barbados so it can be done without having to transit POS. On the way home today I also learned that AA flies an ATR between SJU and POS. At 623 miles that is WAY too long to spend in a turbo prop.

And I also received a CO TCV in the mail today. They sent me $125 for the fiasco with CO61 coming home from the BRU Do. They did explain the reason for the delay as a mechanical one (busted hydraulic line requiring an aircraft swap) and noted that there was no requirement to provide cash compensation since they didn't cancel, but that they were offering a TCV as a good-faith gesture. I was not expecting anything and am very pleasantly surprised by this move. ^^ Now to find somewhere to spend it. :D

They publish the accident info on the LED screens. The problem is that by the time you see the signs, you are already sitting in traffic.

:eek::eek::eek: That might have been worth waiting in BRU for...

Man I turned that $400 DL ECV into a trip to Dublin. Total cost to me $58.45

$54.95 for amex GC that I purchased for an ex 6 months ago.
$3.50 MARTA fare to/from the ATL airport.

I feel great, J.Ed is this how you feel all the time?

For those of you coming to the meet from colder/snowier climates, good news! Right now, long range forecasts for this weekend have it dry around here with temps in the mid 70s. Obviously, that's subject to change being this far out. I'm sure good news is always welcome.
