Jump to postFWIW, I once rode up an elevator with Lou Reed carrying his laundry, in an apartment on the West Side. I was speechless as my brain went into "We're not worthy" mode.
RIP to The Man. You don't need no obituary, just listen to "Intro: Sweet Jane".
Do you need any special training to pilot a plane TATL if you haven't done it before? Must be pretty exciting the first time.

Jump to postSankaps - you may want to point out that a dispatch reliability of 95% means that 1 of 20 flights does not make it - hardly something to be proud of, and not something to base a long haul operation on!
