Never mind. You're not worth the bandwidth.

What do you mean, your turn? Your continuous excuses for management have enabled continuous incursions into employees contracts, outside of Section 6. In fact, poopie has named you, specifically, as someone who is an obstacle to positive progress for the employees.
I will happily exchange information that only gets you in trouble because it seems you have a historical problem with crew concept and have a problem "fingering someone else" to evade responsibility.

WRONG?
Wrong.
You are talking about the star, producer, and writer of many training videos no one saw or ever heard about. Because they do not exist.
Calling a legend in his own mind wrong is the equivalent of saying the sun rises in the West.

Sorry about the filthy planes. Fly AA. :mf_boff: Peeeeeeeeeeee.u!
Something, um, special in the air: AA works to quash bathroom odors on 757s
By TREBOR [email protected]
It's bad enough to be crammed into a tiny seat in a packed aircraft cabin, subjected to noisy seatmates and crying babies. But what if the airplane, well, just stinks?
Some passengers have encountered that malodorous problem on recent American Airlines flights. The carrier said it is working to eliminate the in-flight stench that has occasionally arisen in some of its Boeing 757 jets.
American has received sporadic complaints about foul odors coming from the lavatories on the planes. While the problem isn't widespread, airline officials said, they are nonetheless switching to a stronger sanitizing fluid and redirecting air vents to reduce the unpleasant odors.
"We've been hearing input from our customers and our flight attendants about the issue and working to come up with a solution," spokesman Tim Smith said.
A more pleasing in-flight aroma comes at a cost to American, even as the Fort Worth-based carrier is working to slash expenses. The stronger sanitizer is more expensive, Smith said. And American will also absorb the maintenance costs of redirecting the lavatory vents to blow air outside the plane rather than into the cargo area in the aft of the aircraft.
The entire fleet is scheduled to have lavatories replaced as planes are refurbished beginning this year.

I think you have had one too many glasses of wine or smoked one too many pine cones!

How long does it take to replace a seat in Y? And How long in F? I was in SLC and saw a pair of seats being rolled on a flatbed down the terminal.

Jim....I get a little bit worked up when I see a lack of respect for someone that has "been there, done that and got the T-Shirt," in your case, going back to flying DC-3's, several T-Shirts.
You have earned the respect. You deserve it....I simply believe, regardless of whether we agree or not, that we all demonstrate and show you (and others who have your experience) the respect you've EARNED.
Thats all.
Several of us (me for one) are extremely grateful to have the opportunity to learn from you and others with your experience. I don't take it for granted...I hope no one else does.

You don't really change a seat unless you're just talking about the cushions/covers - you change a seat unit generally composed of 2 F seats or 3 Y seats on a narrowbody (some aircraft like the MD80 have 2 & 3 seat Y units).
The difficulty with replacing the whole unit is the wiring in the armrest for IFE/etc and getting the unit off/on the aircraft (turning the corners from the door to go down the aisle). Except for these things, it's just some twist to lock fastners that hold the unit to the track in the floor.
