We will be around that day. I don't know if I can get David to stick around until 4:30 though...

Maybe I can push the Anniversary angle...

$20 Billion in development, over 4.2 Million man hours in development and testing. Somehow I'd think they might have come across this issue already.

Perhaps it has something to do with all the new gates they are building to accommodate the plane. It could even be as radical as having more than one exit.

You'd think. I didn't catch the whole conversation but it sounded like the guy knew a flight attendant that said she hates working on board those things because of the mass of people.

Poopie! I'm going to be on a plane from LAS to LAX at 4:30 on Sunday.

I'm sorry I won't be able to meet you scaeagles. :(

You know, after 9/11, you'd think people would want less people on each plane...

Hasn't it only just had its first test flight recently? If so, how then could a flight attendant hate to work on one? There haven't been any flight attendants working on one yet.

My loss, SM. Funny thing is I had always assumed you lived in Minnesota because of your fixation on a Timberwolves player - or rather former Timberwolves player.

While we were boarding planes and suchlike I posited that planes should be designed like Starspeeders (or Small World boats etc) with doors to every row so that people exit and enter in approximately 10 seconds.

You mean current Boston Celtic.

Hmm. Well, like I said, I didn't catch the whole conversation. Probably heard it wrong.
