Next Week
Believe it or not, your author mostly cleared my backlog – both in travel and most of the AIX stories (there are a few more left I’ve got to patch up, but those are taking time). Thus, for now, your author is going to revert to bread-and-butter news coverage for the next few weeks, whilst they come up with a mad scheme.
Or something to keep sane.
So until next week, Happy Landings.
