Not to poopoo the situation,but the MAX entered the market a little over 1.5 years ago. This order doesn't affect any 73's most of us think of.

well..sorry..when a person starts typing, (at least me) sometimes we get halfway through the thought before realizing the "caps" were on!..im not shouting..i understand commenting or "blogging" or whatever is different than the good old fashioned way of writing a note or a comment..being considerate is to not criticize others for writing or punctuation, or sometimes even spelling as some do..no one is perfect,and courtesy does count..have a wonderful day, and may your vision always be 20/20!!
