If you want to be personal come and join us in the General Discussion forum.

No kidding! Way too many fireworks in there. I think the military forum is even worse.

well, even RR’s can’t operate at full efficiency every where.

Good.

Are those 2 drawn to scale?

Guys if you want a cool screensaver check out the Star Allaince website.Their screensaver shows you were every star allaince members planes are are and shows you the flight number and dstination one at a time.Its awseome and very very addictive.

No kidding? I knew their screensaver entailed some sort of route map, however I had no idea it was as interactive as you describe.

Aeroflot will be joining Skyteam before the Year is out, though…

I was well aware of that. 😉

Just the same, I would NEVER confuse a L-1011 with a {Yuck} DC-10. I know I flew at least one leg to HNL on a Tristar.

I hate to be anal about this, but the L-1011 is my favourite airplane of all time. Either your dates or your aircraft aren’t consistant with when Hawaiian retired the Tristars in favour of leased DC-10’s from American. At some stage in 1995 maybe even late 1994, Hawaiian was done with the L-1011. They were stored and either wound up with Rich International, or Air Ops. If you’re positive that you flew with Hawaiian on a Tristar, then you flew to HNL in the early 90’s, perhaps up until 1994. Otherwise, it was another operator of a Tristar with a white fuselage, like Delta, America Trans Air, or the aforementioned Rich International, all of whom did the LAX-HNL run with Tristars.

Better a sister in a whorehouse than a brother on a DC-10.

Nice one! 😀

Wow, I’ve never heard of that before. Have you ever seen it?

Not in person, I have not. I have seen the process of the torch being lit at Olympia, on Greek TV, however.

I think that looks prettty nice, incorporating the colours of the Olympic theme this year, with the olive branches and whatnot. The Olympic torch is lit naturally (using sunlight reflecting off a silver convcave dish of some sort) in Olympia, Greece. It is then relayed thoughout various nations, ultimately reaching its destination for opening ceremonies, which for this year won’t be too far from it’s birth.

If Aeroflot was in Star, I would have gone out of my way to have flown them already.
