Glo,
That whole T7 vs 380 is old...really REALLY old... no one cares with the exception of the Jerry Springer crowd and pre teen school girls...lets move on and act like 18 year olds now.....deal?
Since I became a "mature" 19 year old I realized that it doesn't matter what you fly as long as it pays ME....I could give a **** about how much it makes for the company or not... I haven't seen the figures or am I privy to other influences. For anyone to think they are that enlightened and are still actually "flying" the aircraft only goes to show that they failed...probably as managers...and that is saying something..not all good either....there is a little more to it than your casio calculator and 30 seconds worth of calculations.
Leave it up to Tim....its his job...if he has failed then email him and tell him so...then copy his response to you here so that the peasants become enlightened.
As for winding up "dugong drivers" (BTW one of the dumbest names I've ever heard)...if this is what you really live for then....well...what I say! Good for you...little camper!
Knitting would be step up from this...

Maybe this will silence the little campers. From latest Flight International and also quoted in todays "National" from an article about the IATA meeting going on in Doha.
The Dubai carrier’s president Tim Clark says he is not in talks about an order for Boeing’s largest aircraft

I COULD give a **** means I don't care...mainly because I don't care much for **** in the same manner as I don't care how much it makes for the company.
In Other words...****=bad. Not giving **** can be a sign of respect given the subject at hand.
Whereas:
If you give a ****, you then you have indicated your position or stance on the matter at hand, especially if your "token opinion" remains in evidence.
Its English...difficult to grasp I know. Hope this clears it up.

This English really is difficult to grasp eh Outlaw.
If one doesn't give a **** it means one doesn't care. In fact, one doesn't care so much that not even a **** shall be given.
Hope this helps

I get the drift:
As the debate 380 vs. T7 apparently is soooo old, please note that I did not mention that contest in my contribution: Others took it up. I merely made fun of the fact that Timmy asks for better 380 performance. I had to realise that this comes close to blasphemy!
Lesson No1: Never question the dugongs performance here.
As making fun of or winding up seems to be ok on the Caravan ME forum (I think it’s funny myself), it seems to be childish when dugongs or their drivers are involved.
Lesson No2: Never wind up anyone involved with a dugong, there is no sense of humour involved there.
As critcising management about anything concerning T&C issues seems not only politically absolutely correct and accepted (they are apparently completely incompetent and ignorant in such matters), the faith in our big Manitou is unrattled when it boils down to the dugong. He seems to know exactly what he does there and any doubt raised is either out of line, not in the competence of the party raising it or childish.
Lesson No3: EK management is only to be criticised if no dugong involved.
As waist of money, like sponsorships around the world, seem to influence our T&C’s and is therefore correctly prone to our ire, this does not seem to apply to doubts about performance of one of our most important tools.
Lesson No4: Right or wrong about that is irrelevant, such issues are no longer to be raised!
As some contributors perceive my sarcasm about the dugong as out of line and childish, although it is about a professional issue in context with the thread, they perceive it as absolutely professional and correct to debate endlessly about a “do” or “don’t” before a “care” preceding a “****”.
Lesson No5: Grammar is more important than anything else. Even when causing a thread drift.

Glo...
Nice one!
That is what some may refer to "IRONY".
The enlightened might actually make the connection between the importance about giving (or not giving as the case may be) a ****...and the validity of comparing the T7 and the 380 ( or dugong ) as Springer crowd prefer.
Not really....wouldn't you want the best efficiency out of your SUV/PRIAS/GOLF CART that you could get?
Funny...I refer to a A380 as a 380. I also refer to a 777 as a 777, an A320 is a 320 and I refer to a 747 as a "747". I dont understand the whole dugong and John Deere BS but if it makes you feel good to do so then who am I to judge? I suppose its a lifestyle choice.
Just sounds fu..... retarded is all...
PS... The type I operate pays me the same salary I had last year...what does yours pay?

Your quote reads:
whereas my contribution reads:
This is a classic gutter-journalist distortion of meaning, willfully.
Change job, you're good at it.

Harry,
I see your point, but if you give **** to someone, isn't that a bad thing? IE: I'm giving glo **** for using the word "dugong", however I'm also "taking the piss" on the **** I give. If I didn't give a **** then no one would be in **** or getting any ****.
May have to email Oxford for clarification...
Many ways to skin a "scat"!! (couldn't resist)
Glo,
Just what point are you trying to make? The quotes are the same...no? Or did I miss something?
What you do seem to say is that you enjoy pissing on the 380 crowd (that's "dugong" for the challenged)
PS...did you email Tim? Did he ask you to join the commercial team? I'll bet the lads on the 9th floor would welcome your opinions and knowledge...c'mon you can tell us....we're open minded!
