BTW, someone posted a "vanity" this morning asking why the BlueJet pilots didn't just go on to New York rather than using up the gas. Immediately there were 15 or so informed responses about drag, etc. Have been trying to find that thread for the past hour as I would be interested in reading more responses (being a newbie aviation junkie :o) ) Would appreciate if you have a link.

Sorry, I don't. Anybody on the list able to help the Dutchess?

Didn't see the thread but the rule is simple. If something is wrong, stay near a safe place to land.
