I Tired joining International Rescue, but apparently you can only get in if you know someone who can pull a few strings.

If we all went Kelvin we'd never have to worry about sub zero temperatures again!

There was a young man from Nantucket,
Who stood with his foot in a bucket...

Did he died?

A witty and concise response in keeping with current board humor from 3WE. This truly is the season of miracles (well either that or the kimono clad cyber warrior is borrowing id's again).

Rumor is: they couldn't find any pilots willing to fly it anymore.

Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha
Did you just make that one up on the spur of the moment - its funny.

It should have been found that there was shared blame.... wait a minute, there was, Continental, and John Taylor.... but, the fact that the Concorde is still parked leads one to suspect there is a serious design flaw and blame should be shared by more. Still? It did come back into commercial servic...

Leahy, who has denied any wrongdoing, was among a number of executives cleared a year ago in a separate investigation into similar charges by France's AMF stock market watchdog. ... A French judge has already placed five people under investigation in the case. Will there ever be any lessons learnt ...

There's toilet paper tossers, then there are super genius of the millenium toilet paper tossers.

There's also plenty of plain old tossers too

Why don't we give peace a chance?

Because ironically, half of the Beatles did died - by violence!

half of them is still alive and kicking - and only half of the half that did died did get died by killing, the other got died by dying.

Note: I usually sign all my team's Code of Condit forms for them, just for expediency's sake.

Hell Verbie - you can't even spell it!

I'm wondering if the clients instructions will be appearing on wikileaks at some future point

I blame Cindy

You consider that on topic?

Yeah Marty - get your red pen out and give your self a 10 minute ban! I would suggest longer, but with the weather here at the moment, cant afford to waste candles on the vigil.

What was the topic?

Nowt rang with wot ee sez - ahh can dee it in "English" for yez if ye divvent nah Geordie. He didn't fancy that when it came across Watch Steve Bruce he'll not be happy with... Great run by Rosicky ...but what he'll not be happy with - Titus Bramble! He should be winning that ball against ...

There's no need to fanny around searching the hood for Mr Litoris's, use the tunnel, in out - you're there

500 lines of code isn't really very much. Just the code for talking to a real battery in a laptop is more than that. 5000 is probably more reasonable for modeling a battery, although it depends heavily on what generic facilities the battery code can make use of. I'd guess the whole simulator is pro...

And now a QANTAS 747 SIN-SYD turns around with an Engine failure.
If any of the PAX were fugees from the A380, I would advise staying well away from them on future flights!

get the f*** out of the drivers seat

Are you Chris Kilroy?

No - he's just auditioning for a customer service role.

Glenn, do you understand the meaning of the term, "second segment climb"? I didn't, I Googled it, I don't. Per Pure parlor talk here, Ike, ITS, Dummy please correct as appropriate Its the bit after you get off the ground but before you clean the wing. In other words, its the bit that is r...

...Singapore Airlines has cabin crews of 23 on each of its A380s...

Which means 21 is about right for Qantas. Singapore need the extra 2 because they are so hot the pax keep 1 on each deck walking up an down the aisles just for eye candy.

most likely type?

The worst thing is that they are still allowing this sociopath fly pax. He should be in jail.

Hey Ike can be blunt at times but hes not a sociopa...

OH - You meant Martins

[There's a rule of thumb- for a gentle level off, start at 10% of your vertical speed in fpm. I don't know if it holds up at 6000 fpm descent rates, but if you start leveling at 2000, you will be done at 1300 and the customers would only feel several seconds of a slowing elevator. Doesn't every lev...

That only took what, five years?

Priorities correctly aligned

...can't really tell the difference between 3,000fpm or 6,000fpm. Heck, without looking at the gauges, even I can barely tell the difference Bet you could at 2000ft :) There's a rule of thumb- for a gentle level off, start at 10% of your vertical speed in fpm. I don't know if it holds up at 6000 fp...

Congrats Ike,

Just remember it could be worse - they could be AA cougars
