I don't know for sure who Michael is, but Barry.....I'm guessing he probably had a sniffle and admitted himself into the hospital for fear of Legionnaires disease.
(He tends to over exaggerate his health issues - the funny part is by doing so, he will probably out live us all).
On a serious note, you guys seem to have figured it out pretty well so far.
Remember when I said Baltia double and triple checked everything under their control....and then the FAA sealed the doors shut?
Well.....everything under Baltia's control went smoothly.
In all the prior minis, there was something that went wrong that Baltia's maintenance department could have corrected....a mooring strap too short, a loose shoe on a girt bar, a door misaligned by a fraction.....but none of that with this last test.
Everything that Baltia could be held responsible for went flawlessly....and the staff even broke their prior records.
What did go astray is something inside the sealed pack that Baltia gets from the FAA certified slide re-packer....and since Baltia is not allowed to open those packs or inspect what is inside....everyone expects to get the thumbs up real soon......as soon as the paperwork gets the stamp of approval.
It is the re-packer who made the mistake and who now has to answer to the FAA - not Baltia.
That's about all I can say at this time.
Go Baltia.
Godspeed.
