To the various people above: I was not criticising the crew (RIP)but rather questioning the MD-11. This kind of accident is happening all to often on that type. I was at the airport the night of the HKG MD-11 crash -not very nice.
I have a lot of faith in other McDonnell Doulas products but this one has a few too many problems. If confronted with a choice to fly on an MD-11 as a passenger with reputable airline "A" or another type with reputable airline "B" I am thinking I would fly airline "B".
BTW "Box Jockey" it is possible to make an argument with out incoherent ranting.

Perhaps I came on too strong. I took a sarcastic tone from your post, and if it wasn't intended that way, then please accept my apologies. Any time we lose a peer, it is a bad day indeed. Take care.

FedEx discount still in place - at least here
I stopped in my local FedEx distribution center today to inquire about the CX discount.
The agent looked it up on her computer, and confirmed that the discount is indeed in place.
She then went to the trouble of making a shipping billing for an item she placed on the scale - as if it were an item being shipped.
Sure enough, the bill included our discount.
She suspected that the reports here regarding our lost discount were the result of a mistake made by the FedEx agent at the time, ie. by misspelling Cathay Pacific when entering it in the computer.
Today's visit took place in the U.S. I could tell you exactly where, but...
