On point 7 in Defcon's post, wasn't this caused by the business class floor in the 200's being unsuitable for the international configuration?

As the aircraft were initially to be used domestically, a bean counter saved some bucks by not having the original floor specified to the required strength for bigger international J class seats.

Anyone have a dollar figure for that little gem?

Happened on Dixon's watch, he's got to accept responsibility.

For that and the rest of Defcons points, I'm sure Geoff will be happy to provide an explanation to the shareholders.
