I feel weird in saying this, but hopefully averaging 30+ Delta Connection flights a year for the past four years will be beneficial to me in the near future...

My guess: It builds character, and it's slightly easier than sitting cross-legged on a bed of nails.

That too. Fortunately I'm small enough that I can endure 700 miles on a CRJ-200.

Or as vuelos would chime in here (if he were not on a helicopter tour in Hawaii), I'm a midget (to which I would again retort that 5'6" is not being a midget).

Does this increase to 900 miles on a CRJ-700?

Which reminds me, when is someone over 18 going to vouch for Vuelos' age, so I can give him custody of his own milepost?

I originally considered requesting the verification from someone over 18, sane & sober, but that would be impossible around here.

It certainly will be beneficial for your chiropractor.

You are not going back to Arizona anymore? How come? Are you still have to relocated from PHX? You would likes come back to PHX sometimes in the future. I am bit worried about you guys that I haven't meet you in persons.

At least that's older than rumored. Perhaps on New Years we'll have a general amnesty for all mileposts held in estate.
