Thanks Nitpicker, but am still firmly on my perch. I am somewhat grateful to see my fellow members of the Retired Airline Pilots Association, have mainly managed to keep going, despite years of chronic jet lag, too many marriages, chronic tiredness, and cabin fumes. In fact it gives me great hope in that our last Capt, that fell off his perch, was 98! No, I am simply here to join the protest and the fight for QF.
