And a Merry Christmas to you and yours as well. I was just thinking the other day about one trip east around Christmas and we were told by the Engineer to be on the lookout for Santa as he made his way from Hawaii to southeast op area. Never saw him and someone asked the Engineer if his intel was as spot on as his Engineering skills. The reply was, "Santa is the most profecient aviator in the world. If he didn't want to be found he wouldn't be found even by our lookouts." To which he Captain said, "Does not matter skills or lookouts, we are in the south Pacific, Santa flies the northern route, stations gentlemen.
