Did I read somewhere on FT (maybe here?) that the ANA tool was going away or getting scaled down or something? Can't remember.

Pooping in a bag does not require physical handling of poop. Trust me on that.

Sounds like there is some interesting backstory there.

I did that on my Lego 787 at first too. But they, being Lego, did make it painfully obvious which way it should go thanks to angled engine mounts on the wings.

no guide to go on here. I just noticed that the metal fin on the engine is supposed to be on the inside not the outside.

Yes, but I thought they were kinda cool.

So I have taken a job with the Museum of Flight in SEA. Now I just have to figure out 1) where to live $500 or less a month, and two how am I going to get there from here.

My father was part of a group of guys who pranked a boss of theirs by installing all manner of vile items in the target's work truck. Among others, deer urine under the seat and human poo under the horn cap.

I did. The KE flight from HKG-ICN is a 747-Combi :rolleyes:
Upper deck is economy. :(

It only took me 3 calls to book this. The first two told me the EWR-ATL-NRT-HKG routing was either not valid or not available. I decided I would take the path of least :rolleyes: and book the JFK flights.

They also charged me the call center booking fee without telling me. That took two phone calls to fix.

Here is what I have so far. I think think it could use tweeking though

The KE agent told me the 772 from ICN-IAD is listed as Kosmo Sleeper flight, so I will be keeping my fingers crossed for that config.

Nothing wrong with picking up a 744 combi. ^

The Kosmo Sleeper refers to the First class seats only. J will be the standard angled flat Prestige seats.

I thought the Kosmo Sleeper config has the new flat business seats.

You can score a lot more than that if you go to the former BE lounge on Concourse E.

And remind me to share with you my ability to get logged onto T-Mobile Wi-Fi sometime.
