who locks a thread? and once it is locked can it ever be opened again? and why is a thread locked?

Comments regarding rugs, carpets, and drapes seem like a sure way to get a thread locked!

FlightAware staff can lock and unlock threads, although unlocking is rare.

Threads are generally locked for being duplicates or straying off-topic from aviation.

Fly and I were referring to a thread (a rather intriguing one) that was locked before you came on to the FA scene.

No hon, it was the shag comment, broke the lock threshold

Satine · January 31, 2009, 6:09am

Squeal!!! kiss

(That was an aviation related kiss, cause he’s a pilot and therefore keeping with the overall theme of aviation. Hence, this thread is not lockable

I’m surprised the forum will let you get to the posting page for a locked thread.

azav8r · January 31, 2009, 6:56am

At least I have one fan around here…

FRANK!!! I missed you! . All we need is JHEM, Allen, FedEx, and
we’ll be locked and loaded then!

Satine · January 31, 2009, 2:34pm

kiss Dreamy sigh bats eyelashes

I could make a comment about push-backs, and washing and waxing horizontal and vertical stabilizers, but then we’d be off the refurbishment topic and onto maintenance!

globemaster · January 31, 2009, 2:39pm

i dont know, we will chock it up to not paying attention and will look for that little locked thread thing.
