100 days

Wife flew her last flight on the MD80 today as she now goes into semi-retirement awaiting a DEC 1st training date for 737 training. MD80 goes into retirement officially on AUG 24 or 25th with some special send-off by the Company on the 28th. After several thousands of hours over 17 years myself, with my wife flying the last 12 years (with a 3 year sabbatical for maternity leave), I can say that it'll always hold a special place in both our aviating memories, especially the dozen or so times we flew as crew together - so far as we know the only husband & wife combo to do so (at least at Alaska).
