Headcounts

6c, time for me to make a withdrawel from the memory bank. I was merely trying to show how the thread has spiralled inwards on itself!!!

Now accuracy of headcounts (L337) brings up another memory. I was flying on an internal flight within South Africa with a departure time of 7am (PEAK!). I observed the CC starting the headcount at the back of the plane, moving forwards. After about 12 rows they seemed to loose count and came back to the back and restarted. There were 3 restarts before the count was successfully completed. During the flight I took a quick walk to row 1 and back, there were only 3 empty seats on the whole flight!!! If the plane is more than half full don't waste time counting heads!
