On the 26th 10 hours delay to get de-iced, welkom back Vnukovo

Seems that if you are just a normal operator you are the last in line, the ones with connections have the pole position. Hope Medvedev gets on with his program against corruption.

More to continue - today one of our company a/c waited startup 3h50, the other one 5:30.. nice to be AOG in the middle of Europe. Rumours, that they are really short of anti/de ice fluid, so the surprises might continue. Anyhow.
Will fly from VKO at 31st.. so prayers and voodoo-stuff is going to be handy, hoping to be home at evening of 31st . I know that Domodedovo is mess but anybody have flown in last of couple days to/from Sheremetyevo? In the bright side, Medvedev in TV promised, that people who is responsible for that DME/VKO mess are going to put in jail

Such threats in the western world normally tend to work wonders; I wonder how much of an effect the prospect of an undetermined period of time in Lubyanka will have

UUMO / Ustafjevo have apparently put in a mandatory 6 hrs in the hangar scheme in order to safe de icing fluid. I just wonder what fortune they will ask for that. Probably the weight of the airplane matched in Gold rubels or the like...
