Yellow Nape Law

Long ago in a Thread far, far away, an active group of Amazons and other Parrots came together to provide legal, not so legal and out and out illegal government, mega international business and downright shady individuals goings-on.

In those days, Yellow Nape Law and Mealy International worked in concert to provide services to their wide range of clients. Client needs clearly defined a need for the organizations to act internationally. Thus the growth of the new formed organization Yellow Nape Law International and the expansion fo Mealy International.

Today, the two groups have offices around the World, setting the stage for near every region of the World to be active.

In the weeks to come, as story lines develop, everyone can provide intrigue occurring in their region.

Enjoy and join-in as the fun expands.

As a Starting Point!

Recently, a government group approached Mealy International to obtain equipment, build support and legal help in developing a secret facility near Phenix, Arizona. This secret facility would house a lab, archive and build facility. Located 1800 meters below the surface it represented a clear opportunity for Mealy International to expand its secret software.

Within the notes a reference to Scott was found, but little more could be gleaned.

I can confirm knowledge of secret underground facilities north of Phoenix, Arizona. My role is limited to liaison between Mealy International and upstart Blue Front Enterprises. BFE is seeded by money from Elon Musk in hopes of bringing Amazons to Mars by mid-century as humans colonize the Red Planet. Elon views parrots as the ultimate companion but they will need to learn flight in reduced gravity within the confines of subterranean habitats.

All I can disclose at the moment is efforts to acclimate parrots in areas of reduced oxygen. Studies are underway to simulate the effects of Martian gravity using Mealy International software.

Wait.. what?

Elsewhere, Yellow Nape Law, International Group had completed their eight-month project in reconfiguring the Corporate Computer and Software system to support the Phoenix project and provide the needed capacity and security to support it and additional large projects.

In the Spring of 2020 Yellow Nape found that like near every other corporation, both organizations and their client’s computer system had not been designed to operate with near everything remote. Within days the software was upgraded and the new standard of working from home was underway.

By Summer 2020, rapid changing events worldwide found Yellow Nape Law needing to upgrade its computer equipment and more importantly software at their offices and those of their clients providing excellent connection with staff at home and in the office. Plus, the next generation of security being released by the major operating systems.

The combination of worldwide corporate sabotage and the Boarder closures cause by the monster virus has required a unique approach that with great luck Yellow Nape staff had developed 18 months earlier using KLM's combi 747 long range aircraft. With the onset of the monster virus, KLM as did all international airlines had aircraft sitting. By switching out the interior and installing four fully separate group quarters of fifteen individuals and their gear. Plus, added room for aircraft cargo containers for the new equipment switch-out and problem was solved.

By mid-Summer, the first projects occurred at Yellow Nape’s North American Headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia, then the European Headquarters in Amsterdam, followed by Telavi. With the first group handling the dis-infection of the computer room, removal and loading of the equipment into the aircraft cargo container. Group two again disinfects the area and installs the new equipment. Group three disinfects and starts up the system. Group four handles the disinfection of the containers prior to loading and unloading from the aircraft and the staff as they leave and return to the aircraft. Time on ground, less than 12 hours.

January 2021 the completion of the Worldwide upgrade was completed.

Meanwhile, in a top secret government facility located in an artificial black hole created by CERN in Switzerland, efforts are underway to recruit personnel best suited to cope with the variety of G-forces that it is anticipated that tech crews will encounter when piloting Elon Musks's experimental spacecraft to the Red Planet. Results so far indicate that a bunch of crazy Rainbow Lorikeets have both the temperament and physical attributes best suited to that particular task....

Yellow Nape Law had little time to sit on their perches and bask in the laurels of worldwide upgrade. By Valentine's day they were dispatched to CERN in Switzerland and tasked with harnessing the mysteries of artificial black holes. During a recent experiment, two dozen Rainbow Lorikeets emerged from the Large Hadron Collider. Scientists believe it may be possible to reverse time-travel and rejuvenate rare and endangered parrot species. Mealy International and Blue Front Enterprises have teamed up to devise experiments capable of returning scientists to the Medieval era.

Prasilla has to have a claw in this..under ground establishments indeed! Area 51!! Don't let those Amazon's fool you,the wheels in their little heads are always turning. You can bet your last nutraberry or pine nut that they are confabbing at this very moment with ET about "reverse technologies!"

Since Nigel has been in exile for so long I was wondering what became of his "legal" staff,and now I know!

Meanwhile, Dr. Saltinus J. Amazonas, while studying the effects shown in the picture below, has written a paper on "Perpetual Motion and the Display of Monopole Behavior of 2 Opposed Lorikeets". I found it lining his cage! The math is way over my head. I am not sure how this relates to Yellow Nape Law, but scary nonetheless.

At the YNL February video conference, Yang again stated his concern regarding the continued tensions in their region with military flyovers, and interference with shipping, especially close encounters between military ships and international cargo ships.

Priscilla asked what he recommended. Yang requested a quick evacuation plan with transport equipment in place. Julio pointed out that an aircraft capable of pulling all staff, their family and equipment on-call would be tens of thousands of dollars per day. Priscilla asked about one of the turbo prop aircraft, as the organization has two setting because of virus restrictions on travel. Julio stated likely hundreds of dollars once in place. But they are limited to a maximum of six individuals and only the most sensitive of equipment. Add the limitation of 1800 miles that quickly limits the destinations.

Priscilla asked Yang to review options with Julio and quickly as she agrees that the level of tensions has many organizations and Countries limiting travel to Taiwan. Julio made note of that point as Priscilla had likely already talked to Frederick regarding the Taiwan office.

The regional managers for Africa and South America stated that the virus continues to rage across their Continent’s and warned that each has seen new versions of the virus and that the South Africa variant is rapidly expanding in North America.

Priscilla was pleased that no one had inquired about Frederick’s special projects and ended the meeting.

Not surprising her phone rang and Julio started with; what have you two agreed on regarding Taiwan? Priscilla stated, we need to reduce our footprint in Taiwan and quickly. When the KLM 747 completes its current work in Japan this week have it fly empty to Taiwan with the exception of group 4. That will allow up to 45 individuals and equipment to be airlifted out of Taiwan. Julio inserted, you know that none of them will be happy setting-up in Japan, lots of history between those Countries, none particularly good. Priscilla stated that Frederick’s staff have already set-up an office area in their hanger /warehouse in Japan, for the Taiwan group. Julio added to his notes that Yang had likely not been aware of this plan. He then stated he would move the King Air 350i from Telavi to Japan and it would be on-call to pull the skeleton crew from Taiwan, when needed.

Julio hung-up and prepared to call Yang…

Priscilla with Sara had arrived from her European Headquarters in Amsterdam at the group’s corporate offices located deep within the Atlanta airport properties. The recently built hanger, warehouse and office complex allowed excellent security and the needed international status of the airport itself. As she deplaned, she noted the KLM 747 was in final preparations for departure. She and Sara quickly made their way into the new complex noting the many special features that Frederick and Julio had kept her updated on.

As they neared the elevator, she saw Frederick exiting it. Even from this distance he was easy to spot, after all, Mealy Amazons are the giants of the Amazon family and Frederick clearly fit that description. She recalled when they first met in Law School so very long ago and the promise, they made to each other. Another quick look around and she had to admit, they had clear exceeding both of their expectations. Frederick’s booming voice caught her for just a second as she returned to see she was but a moment from a huge Frederick size warm hug! Priscilla my dear lady, it is so good to see you. Priscilla still deep within Frederick’s hug enjoyed the moment, after all, only Frederick could make her feel like a little chick.

Not losing a step, Frederick asked who the lovely lady was, although he knew from the moment he stepped out of the elevator, she was the daughter of Judge and Mrs. Mac. Priscilla quickly completing the introductions, allowing Frederick to introduce, himself and his new title, CEO Mealy International. Priscilla was enjoying the moment, after all, it is not common that she was the smallest bird in the flock. As they exited the elevator, Julio met them in the Board Room. Julio hugged his boss and said hi to Sara, after all they had just completed another round the world trip two weeks ago.

Priscilla asked what Yang had recommended and Julio quickly covered their discussion and Yang’s plan to exit Taiwan, setting-up a ‘temporary’ office in Japan. Frederick glanced at Priscilla and whispered to remind him to never face Julio in a court room!

Frederick updated everyone regarding both CERN and the Phoenix projects. Plus, the seven projects in process around the World to supply highly specialized equipment for each of the two major projects. He also, covered the software that he has altered to support both projects and their unique requirements.

Sara asked if they had read the document she forward regarding Dr. Saltinus J. Amazonas work?

Meanwhile... across town, on the other side of the proverbial tracks, the Rickeybird wakes up behind the wheel of a 2021 rented Chevy Impala, which is double-parked outside the Hot Hens Gentleroosters' Club. Ah yes, the Rickeybird... disreputable errand-boy and behind-the-scenes sidekick of influential birds and people about town. He preens his signature white eyepatches to rakish perfection before looking around to see if he recognizes anybody or anything that might give him a hint as to why he's here or what he's supposed to be doing. Hmmm... a matchbook from a Phoenix Karaoke Club called "Red Planet Singalongs"... a scrap of paper with "Julio" and an Atlanta exchange cell phone number... a top-of-the-line tube of Swiss lipstick bitten off mid-shaft... a crumpled-up piece of notebook paper which, when unfurled, reveals multiple spellings of an exotic name: Persillahhh, Pracilla, Prassilla... "Saltinus" scrawled on the rearview mirror in that unmistakeable lipstick...
It's all just a bit too much for our dear anti-hero. His eyes glaze over and he settles back into a cloud of tequila burps as he decides to await a more pressing indication of the mission at hand.

Julio’s mobile chirped with the ‘Emergency Alert’ signal: Explosion, Taiwan Office Complex!

It had barely been 36 hours since they had evacuated everyone with the except the skeleton crew. Julio checked the time, staff would have been in the office! At that moment his mobile rang, the ID stated it was Chen, Yang’s assistant. Julio’s first words was is everyone okay? She stated they are, since everyone was working remote and stated that Yang was on his way to the office, now.

Julio suggested a cover story would be appropriate for the News Media. Chen suggested that they would normally be at their group exercise session and that should cover any question regarding staff. Julio agreed and recommended that she flesh-out the release with Yang quickly as Parrot AP would likely be on their way to the office complex with PNN (Parrot News Network) following. Chen stated that she would flash a copy of the statement prior to releasing it. Julio stated that would not be needed, only a copy after they had released it. Julio knew the release would be scrutinized and this would assure that no North America or European nounizes would be detected.

While on the phone with Chen, Julio had provided an email updating Priscilla and Frederick. Frederick was the first back stating that none of his projects had links to the Taiwan office, so not likely that Mealy International is connection. A moment later Priscilla’s email appeared with her stating that when they had pulled out of Hong Kong there had been threats at that time. Frederick flashed back stating he would run a software search for any links and why nothing was spotted earlier.

Yang called Julio and they quickly updated each other. Yang stated that Julio’s recommendation of staging the office to appear as if it was fully staff likely has the terrorists’ thinking they had been successful. Yang stated that the emergency responders are on site and that News Media was just arriving. Yang stated that he would provide Julio with a copy of the release. Julio stated that he should send it to Sara and to copy him. Yang hung-up and smiled to himself. That DYH was always thinking of the system and keeping everyone in the loop. His phone rang, it was his dear wife.

Julio’s phone rang, it was Sara! Julio updated her and recommended that she contact the Taiwan staff in Japan and update them, while he would send out a general communication to all YN offices regarding the explosion and that they should contact their clients, specifically by phone.

After dinner, Frederick pulled Priscilla aside and she could see he was deeply concern about something. Frederick stated that he believed that they needed to make a major change in the combined organization’s structure as my workload with the special projects has been keeping me busy, too busy.

Priscilla, I’m so sorry, I missed the web activities regarding the attack on our Taiwan office. We could have had our staff there when that explosion occurred. Thank God, Yang and Julio had moved so quickly! I just can’t do it all. Priscilla asked what he was thinking.

After a deep breath, he began to lay-out a plan to move forward. First, it’s more than time that we make Julio a Partner. Regarding his areas of responsibilities, Organization Security as with the exception of my oversight of the security software, he is doing everything else anyway. He would continue management of the Americas, while continuing his tutoring of Sara as she grows toward managing our Asian and African offices. As a Partner, he can take-over our positions with the Federation of Amazona. Plus, and to be honest, I’m not sure on a Title for all of this, he will take-over the Contact Law Division of the organization.

Priscilla could see the relief in Frederick’s demeanor as she stated her full agreement with the plan. Now Frederick, you are fully ready to release your security software as you had always been concerned, and to use your words: “Security, and the Danger of Limited Knowledge, to the extent of one’s Operations and Activities, plus the setting of 'spiders' for Web Protection and Intel of an Attack is Central to Our Safety.” You are totally comfortable shifting it ‘fully’ to Julio?

Frederick allowed himself a fairly sizable moment, as to confirm her statement: Yes, yes, I am! But you’re going to have to create the title, as I have never had a knack for those things. Priscilla smiled and asked, so, when are we going to tell Julio. How about now, Frederick stated. Priscilla lifted her phone and a moment later, she asked Julio to join them and to bring Sara as well.

While we wait for the kids to join us, tell me about this Time Travel thing you have been working on Frederick.

Mrs. Black sat silently in her rented SUV. Across the street was Rickeybird as he appeared to be finally waking-up. The drug was commonly fairly fast-acting, and he should have been out for no longer than a half an hour, it had been a bit more than 3 hours? Well, at least that was what the Grass Parakeet had told her when she purchased it in the lobby of Raven Manner.

By pure luck, Rickeybird had been at the club last night, what was he doing in Phoenix? Anyway, she needed access to Yellow Nape Law and what better way than the backdoor! Her only fear was that Rickeybird wouldn’t be able to make sense of the information she had staging in the Chevrolet, after all, he had been drunk when she slipped him the drug.

The Morning had been busy for Julio, last night was still spinning in his head. He was now a Partner! The emails and calls this morning had been near non-stop. His phone rang again, Julio didn’t at first recognize the Ohio number, but the voice on the other end was unforgettable. Rickeybird! what do I own the honor of your call. That moment, his phone indicated that Rickeybird’s line had a tap on it!

As Rickeybird talked, Julio, entered Rickeybird’s phone number and a few other bits of information in addition to what Rickeybird told him into the Security software. As the software did its thing, Julio told him to collect the odds and ends, assure you have everything and get out of the car. Rickeybird knew what Julio just said. He took a long look around him while he busied himself wiping the car clean of his prints and anything else that could connect him to the car. He checked the glove box and the other pockets around the interior, found a Rental Car Contract and photographed the cover page and texted it to Julio. He finished quickly and exited the car. He heard Julio tell him he would call him later. Rickeybird took a photo of the SUV’s plate and text it as well. Rickeybird disassembled the phone dropping bits here and there as he moved quickly away from the car.

Julio entered the additional information from the photos into the software. With great luck, Mrs. Black had used her own name to rent the SUV. The car had been stolen and the individual that rented it was not of interest, well, not at this moment, as Julio placed a deep search on that individual. The oddity of Saltinus’ name was of concern and Julio assigned it a deep search as well and linked it with Mrs. Black.

The searches began unfolding on his screen. Seems that Mrs. Black has been busy, as the links began appearing, Julio assigned a deep search to each. The only outlier was the ‘Saltinus’ link. That search provided a connection to the document being published. A Dead End, or??? Everything else had been general criminal activities with money laundering in South-Eastern Africa. A few connections early last year with ties to individuals that Yellow Nape had dealings.

His phone rang, Phoenix area code, and as Rickeybird stating that he had ‘done as told’ and that he had gotten a phone at the airport, after his bus ride there. The software flashed back confirming phone was clean. Julio stated that we should get you out of there. Julio provided directions to the shuttle area and a bus number. He also provided an address. As Rickeybird moved to that area, he reviewed everything he had told Julio earlier and between there and the airport he had trashed everything. Rickeybird climbed onto the shuttle and provided the address. Okay, Rickey, why are you in Phoenix? Julio sent the screen shots and his notes to Pricilla and Frederick.

As Rickeybird arrived at an aircraft Hanger he was met at the door by a bright-eyed Teil who greeted him by name and escorted into what looked like a medical suite. A nurse met him and began asking him questions regard his health and what memories he had of the last 24 hours, what he had eaten, what he had to drink, while she connect him to an EKG, and listened to his heart. Then took three vitals of blood followed by a check of his eyes, ears and inside his bill. Sir, your heart is irregular, and you have constrained breathing, I do not see where you had this yesterday(?). Rickey was looking at her as he past-out!

After checking the caller ID, Julio answered his phone. Mrs. Black! Why did you try to kill Rickeybird this early morning? What, she shuddered? Well, whatever you gave him nearly killed him! It would be very helpful if you could tell me, now would be important in keeping yourself out of jail!

The Rickeybird's eyelashes fluttered closed as he considered the cute 'tiel's remarks... boy, was she a looker... nothing like an excited little girl-tiel with her crown feathers all twitchy and switchy! His eyes popped open again at the thought of the aroma of Mrs. Black's perfume wafting upwards from her fluffy bosom-feathers... ahhh, surges of boiling blood burst from his heart as he enjoyed the memory of her hospitalities. Oh, and yeah, it was always great to chat with Julio... a rooster could always be assured of top-notch good times alright!! A particularly beautifully made-up Fischer's lovebird nurse had apparently been assigned to monitor the Rickeybird (and probably to occupy him until some use could be found for him later). The old reprobate allowed himself to pass out, at peace in his usual habitat. He snored softly as the little Fischergirl watched his chest rise and fall. She was happy to be charged with such a well-known underworld menace. Wait until her girlfriends heard this one!

Julio cut Mrs. Black off mid-sentence. Leave the keys, take only your ‘hand’ purse and get out of your SUV, NOW! Walk quickly in the opposite direction that Rickeybird left! Do it NOW! Julio checked again and yes, a position tracker had turned on and it was still in the SUV. Julio could hear her quickly walking. She stated that she was about two blocks away now. Okay, you need to take your phone apart, battery, SIM card, etc., and smash the body, toss the bits as you remove them, get another phone at the bus station, keep moving. You should see a bus stop coming up in front of you. Call me later, bye for now, and he hung-up. She arrived at the bus stop as a bus arrived and she climbed on. As she sat down, she heard an exposition, it was her SUV.

Julio added the notes regarding Mrs. Black and her SUV, then opened the link results for the individual that rented the chevy. The information covered the last couple of weeks that included her credit card activities. Hmmm, busy girl, interesting purchases. Julio developed a deeper search including bombmaking, assassinations, terrorist connections, etc.

The KLM 747 approached Phenix airport heavy with the first major shipment of assemblies for the project a full month ahead of schedule. With the Sun just rising they should be unloaded and dead heading to Atlanta by 10 am. From there the plane is schedule to fly to several locations in Europe and back to Phenix with another shipment.

The nurse woke Rickeybird and told him that he is schedule to be on their flight to Atlanta and he needed to be ready to board at 9:30 am. She quickly took his vitals and noted that he had recovered the effects of the drug that nearly killed him. She steadied him as he got up. He had developed quite the reputation and clearly, he will not be forgotten.

Frederick and Julio completed their early morning meeting. The review of yesterday’s events had highlighted several concerns in secreting the Phenix project. Although the ‘name’ had come-up, the lines had all been dead-ends as had the ‘Dr. Saltinus J. Amazonas’ line. They agreed to leave them as a catch should they surface in any future searches. The individual that set Mrs. Black up and near killed Rickeybird had been dealt with, in additional to her contacts.

The only open item was the contract with KLM and the opportunity to incorporate the new plane that Boeing had sitting since the Spring of 2020. The major reduction in operating costs, greater cargo capacity, glass cockpit, and fewer staff needed to fly it provided a solid reason to consider it under the new contract.

Just one more question Frederick, how did Rickeybird get to Phenix?

Rickeybird was guided out to the KLM 747 and at the base of the portable stairway was told that once in the aircraft head forward to the crew area. As he climbed the stairs, he noted that the groundcrew was busy closing the cargo area, and that other passengers are climbing the stairway in the mid-section of the aircraft. Just before he went inside, he looked behind him and saw an airport van pull-up to the bottom of the stairway. He saw Deep Beak and his cohort Red Vent Toucan exit the van. He quickly turned into the aircraft and was guided to the front crew quarters, directed to his seat as that door was closed and locked behind him. He could see the flight crew of four in final preparation. Only a couple moments later he heard them begin the engine start-up. A short five minutes later, the aircraft began moving and an additional five minutes they lifted-off.

Rickeybird’s mind returned to the last time he saw those two, what was the words, aaa yes, ‘problem solvers.’ It was in South Eastern Africa just before… Hmmm, better to just forget about all of that – far too much, ‘political stuff.’ Just prior to landing, he was asked to wait until the other passengers have fully exited the aircraft.

As he descended the stairway, he noted that there was no portable stairway mid-aircraft, clearly, they were headed elsewhere. The ground crew unload two contains and loaded six others, as the fuel trucks, where already adding fuel and as he reached the last step, the new crew were stepping out of the van. He was guided to the hanger and arrived just in time to see the other two individuals climb into an airport transit bus.

He heard Julio call to him. He turned to see Julio extend his wing and welcome him to Atlanta. With a concerned look, Julio asked how he was feeling after all he had a close call yesterday. As the elevator doors opened, Julio stated that Frederick wanted to talk with him as he pointed Rickeybird down the hallway. Stop by my office later and we will talk. In the background he could hear the 747 starting up.

The two ‘problem solvers’ boarded the 777 for Taiwan. They had business class tickets, one of the positives with contacts with Yellow Nape, they had always treated them with respect. Deep Beak opened the project brief and read it with detail. They have been tasked to decommission a terrorist pod of four individuals. The detailed documentation and support equipment list should allow for a quick in and out. Hmmm, extraction will be by private aircraft, to which he smiled, as it will limit the time in country. The mobile phones had the needed numbers. Once in Taiwan, their contact will provide real time update on where the individuals are. Hmmm, likely where they have been as the documentation defines them as non-professionals, local criminals picking-up some side money.

Yang noted the caller ID number and answered the call from Deep Beak. He provided him the latest information on the pod and provided the parking lot number and the location of the SUV. He also confirmed that the AK-47 rifles are Chinese built and had been refined by a trusted gunsmith. Ammunition and magazines filled by the same gunsmith. Common exit procedures. Deep Beak thanked him and hung-up.

Two hours later they neared the airport and phoned the number for the aircraft. They received the location of the hanger. Parked in the parking areas in front, leaving the keys and proceed inside where they had been directed to the waiting aircraft. As they boarded, Deep Beak noted the five blades on the turbo engines and smiled. Within ten minutes they lifted-off. Deep Beak noted the time. Well ahead of schedule.

The SUV was taken to a chop shop where it was converted into pieces and quickly parted out across town.

Yang called the others and told them they will be leaving Taiwan at noon and to be at the hanger by 11:00 am. Leave your apartment as if you are just going into the office, other will handle the closings. He checked the TV news, nothing out of the normal. He would check again at the airport.

At 11:10 am the King Air landed and rolled to a stop in front of the hanger and within moments, a fuel truck arrived. The pilots opened the aircraft and deplaned. They met the relief pilots and began the pre-flight check of the aircraft.

Julio checked his calendar, noting the departure of a KLM’s flight from South Korea to Paris was on-time with all passengers onboard. Also, Yang and his staff had departed Taiwan and would arrive in Japan shortly. He noted that the conference call with KLM and Boeing was in about 30 minutes.

Julio shifted to the file folder prepared by his Contract staff and reviewed it noting the highlighted points. He also reviewed the Boeing offer and considering that Boeing and KLM both wanted this agreement to happen. Julio shifted the documents looking for the win /win point that would close this in Yellow Nape’s favor, but also not leave the others deep in the cold as he was aware of an additional 747 that they would love to include. Although, the jets look like a longer version of the 747 that people have known for 50+ years, everything inside was state of the art, including the engines. On page seven of Boeings offer, he saw the needed link! He called his assistant and requested changes to the agreement that incorporated the linkage. A quick review and he had the document package sent to both Boeing and KLM.

Frederick entered his office and sat-down, Julio passed the latest version to him with the changes noted. Frederick smiled and asked whether they would go for the changes. Julio placed the likelihood as 90+ percent. They need us more than we need them, as he past Frederick the proposals from American, Northwest and United, all of which had new aircraft setting at Boeing. A moment later, Julio opened the video meeting, within a couple of minutes the others had joined in and with introductions completed, they began.

Frederick listened as Julio reviewed the most recent changes, plus a quick review of the proposal that Boeing and KLM had provided and Yellow Nape’s offering. KLM asked if the aircraft could be provided without the KLM paint and logo. Julio allowed the silent moment to continue until the Boeing manager jumped in and stated that if you want the KLM paint, we will agree to provide that at the agreed costing structure. KLM leasing manager quickly agreed. Discussions continued as it became clear to Frederick that the direction was clearly headed toward the proposal provided by Julio.

Julio agreed to update Yellow Nape’s proposal and would have it to them later this afternoon. The meeting ended with all parties happy to have the two new aircraft replacing the current aircraft within 30 days with the bulk of that time training KLM’s staff. Julio watched the log-off list and saw the single Boeing line still open. Julio stated, Leonard, is there something you wish to add? Well yes, if the KLM staff are ready earlier, will you except the aircraft a week sooner? Julio looked at Frederick and allowed the moment to draw out a bit, then stated yes, we would. Leonard thanked Julio and disconnected the line, closing the meeting.

Julio selected Priscilla’s line and a moment later she answered with her normal response: Well? Frederick answered that yes, we have a new agreement with Boeing and KLM and for the costing structure to our favor. Priscilla congratulated them! That greatly enhances the profit picture for both projects and our normal transit flight requirements.

Priscilla stated that she noted Deep Beak arrived and was traveling to Southern Germany to close the loop on the Taiwan project. Are you going to have them visit the Swiss project to address that issue Julio?
