Misc - HL 159 (3)

Subject: Additions & corrections

Mark;

Just received the latest High Life and came across a couple of items that may need modifying-

1. Under Hangar flying, I sent a link to Flight Aware. That same submission was also supposed to have a link to Operation Red Flag. Thought I had included the direct link to the Red Flag video, but maybe not. Here it is

2. Under Good/Bad Deals there is mention of a 75% discount at Fed Ex. While this is essentially true it appears to NOT cover all their rates ,at least not at my local office. Evidently it will not be applied to their cheapest rate-Fed Ex Ground. See excerpt feom the applicability page below. Highlights are mine

Services Offered


  • US domestic shipments: FedEx Priority Overnight, Standard Overnight, and FedEx 2Day.
  • International Shipments: FedEx International Priority.
  • All other FedEx services are available at list rates

Keep up the good work. Glad you survived the grand kids. G/K's are so much fun, wish we would have had them first.

Subject: ID Card?

Someone mentioned a "Retired Delta ID Card" Is there such a thing? I retired in 1997 and never was offered a card. I have often thought it would be nice to have some sort of proof I was there How do I get one?

Blessings to you,

Buff

Editor: Buff, I mentioned the ID card in HL 158 and yes I do have one.  I also know that there are many within our net that could care less and aren’t interested in one in the least.  However, when you are trying to get your FedEx , McCormick & Schmidt’s, Verizon or hotel discounts, it comes in pretty handy.  See Paul’s info immediately below:

Subject: Seat belt commercial. What a great imagination

Hi Mark,
This is a good one to remind us to use seat belts. From the UK.
Dave

Seat belt commercial. What a great imagination

Without a single word, this says it all

This is the new "wear your seatbelt" ad the UK is doing - started by some dude not hired to do it, but because the cause is important to him, he came up with this idea, and now it's being hailed across the world as a "beautiful" commercial.

...And now the video has become so popular with the general public that people are forwarding it to friends/family on their own so quickly that it has spread all over the world in a very short time.

Check out this remarkable ad:
