    Question for the frequent flyers

    That's a tight squeeze. I would probably opt to carry on, or if absolutely required, ship my bags to the hotel one to three days in advance of my arrival. Cheers.

    Sikorsky to Invest in Eclipse

    I doesn't entirely surprise me -- this could be a huge growth market for Sikorsky long term, and I bet Sikorsky service centers could overlap nicely with potential Eclipse service centers. The details are quite thin; does anyone know to what level the owners bought the manufacturing facilities...

    [NA] Motorcycle Riders

    Andrew, A few confidence builders, if you're interested: + Try a track day. Find a local group (I have a number of acquaintances in E. PA, NJ, and NYC who ride heavily) who can get you to a local track day, where you can learn just how far you can push the bike. Many "grey outs" are when you...

    Southwest buying AirTran - didn't see THAT comin'!

    I have changed my domestic travel strategy since being promoted earlier this year. If the direct is served by AA, or international, I'm on AA. If I can non-stop it domestically on jetBlue, I will pick that over connecting on AA. If jetBlue and AA serve the same cities, with similar times, I...

    This is outstanding! Our first two cases in business school were Southwest and jetBlue, comparing and contrasting strategy, finance, and operations. What's interesting is that we determined that SWA would need to go to a split fleet to dynamically compete against jetBlue. SWA, for expansion...

    TI-82, TI-83, TI-85, and TI-92 here (I hacked on TI calcs back in the day; it's how I learned assembly). I also own a HP-48gxc and a HP-12c Platinum. Carry the Platinum with me every day, everywhere I go. RPN > ALG; this is especially true for doing complicated calculations. Cheers, -Andrew
