sorry for the lack o' detail, Ron.  The expert guy (didn't catch his 
name...) said it should still be able to climb w/o one engine on 
take-off.

Sheesh.  You and I should have dinner some time.

We'd be sitting there yelling and waving our forks in the air, and 
we'd need a whole set of Encyclopedias, a world almanac, an atlas, 
and an OED within arms reach...

So I'm coming over for Thanksgiving.  Where do you live, again?
