It pertains to the managed descents. There are so many ways to do it and was wondering what is used most on the line? VNAV, FPA, VS, FLCH?

Since Dec. I've been about 0-30 in trying to swap and drop high speeds for 4 day trips. Everything is "Denied due to staffing". I wouldnt get too overly excited though.

My line for six weeks (Jan and first two weeks of feb) was nothing BUT Saskatoon CDOs. That's the only reason I needed a break. Well, that and the cold.

Go to Lankawi or the east coast for some great beaches.<BR/>Read your blog for several years (actually started reading it in Malaysia).
