Gotta congratulate the guys who pulled this one off (in the yank sense of the phrase...not the British). F..kin' well done!!!

If memory serves, didn't Air Plus (Red Comet kinda-guys) just have a multi-hour delay at Barajas due to a "Scare-Bus" fuel leak on the runway?

Note to SMITH: Man-made Islands ARE available in all the worlds oceans. They belong to the US Navy and have President's names on most (Eisenhower, Truman, Kennedy etc). I doubt seriously, however, that the Airbus is sturdy enough to handle the stopping stresses of a 'trap' though.

Just give me a Seattle product and I'll be happy!
