Well, it may not be a big deal, but only just last week on your blog, SW PR flack Paula Berg said all the missed inspections were done and taken care of last March, a year ago, which of course has now been shown to be a falsehood.

This is what she posted last week:

The inspections in question were one of many routine, redundant, and overlapping inspections of our fleet. And, as you and the WSJ point out, we discovered the missed inspection ourselves, informed the FAA, and promptly completed the missed inspections in March 2007. The FAA approved our actions and considered the matter closed as of April 2007.
