Autothrottle and GM,
Thank you for those kind words. I think that nowadays I have realised that my older colleagues and I are regarded as a bit of an anachronism in the brave new commercial world of nats and that we are a bit of an embarrassment as our primary concern is for safety and our colleagues welfare. I have decided therefore to have my own version of "Visions 2009" in which I am liberated and inspired by my own "destinations" of flying, football, fishing, and travelling.
