What it takes to fly airplanes

[varrin]

This trip hasn't been as long as some of the ones I've been on lately. It has kept up the trend of new destinations, though. I had commercialled through Paris before but never stayed there. A couple days ago I stayed, but only by the airport long enough to sleep. Now, after I land, I'll have a whole day there downtown

Money not correctly applied?

[tlekas]

Maybe the money was not applied in a way that would help the paperwork problem. I don't know much about the Ivory Coast or if bribery is endemic there. Was the paperwork issue with the airline or the country?

And yes, I know something of the US laws concerning bribery by US companies.

4 weeks.. I'm slow... The paperwork problem was kinda between the U.S. and there. It was really a combination of problems but the short version is that we were only getting every other page of our paperwork using the normal method. Our backup method was inop. It finally took a good old fashion fax to make it all happen, but only after a couple hours of messing around...

Fun fun fun...

I wish I could come up with a clever 'paper airplanes' joke right now - but I'm too tired - so insert your own.

Hope you got to enjoy Paris!

Crepes anyone?
