Wednesday’s Child & Flight Sched

BySteeljawscribe
A couple of notes for the next few days — YHS will be taking a temporary (overnight) residence at Bethesda for surgery…and since it would be unseemly to try and post on recuperative medicine there will be a slight mod to the normal flight sched for Thursday and Friday while going EMCON ALPHA through the weekend. Thursday will consist of a roll-up of the latest re. Russia, INF and siting of missile defense elements in Europe; and instead of Flightdeck Friday, the conclusion to the series on 160992 will be posted. Monday we should be back up to speed.
