Since you are not a pilot, you have no "need to know".

So you *do* stoop to personal attacks.

Hypocrite. Whiner.

You could tell him, but then you'd have to kill him.

Called Lockheed Martin FSS this AM for my flight briefing. Spent 20 minutes
in the "we are experiencing high call volume" queue waiting for a live
briefer to take my call.

I've had that experience trying to close a flight plan. In the interim,
they started to look for me.

When one finally did, he was servicing my upstate NY state flight from
Phoenix, Az. Nice enough briefer but so much for the local knowledge.

Wasn't there a promise by Lockheed Martin that wait times would be one minute
or less? In the four years I have been commuting by aircraft the longest I
previously waited for a Buffalo FSS briefer was five minutes.

Is there any other company competing with Lockheed Martin for this business?
If not, you can toss any promises in the wastebasket. For profit-making
corporations, the ideal is to provide the worst possible quality and service
at the highest possible price. And when a corporation has a monopoly, this is
exactly what happens.
