There are probably airplane buffs around here, including me, that could give you more details than you would ever need about such things. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Unless I’d be accused of conflict of interest, of course. I’ve only been in one Feud thread, and I finished last, so I don’t have too much of my ego invested in the results.

Sorry to tell you guys this, but I probably won’t get this scored today. Maybe I will though. I’m working on it, and I’ll email it home.

It’s a tough one, and I’ll need help from you guys, but the main reason is that my husband is coming home tonight after being gone a week. So I might need to spend some time with him instead of on the computer scoring a Feud. 😉

So be patient, 'kay? 🙂

Well, ok… I mean, I know how I get when ol’ y’all know who, AKA, ACBG, AKA da bear’s main squeeze has been away for a few days. I guess we can cut some slack.
