Does anyone have a copy of this they can scan and put up here?
Also does anyone have a Freedom Menu they can do the same?
Thanks

Do you mean this letter?
http://www.v-flyer.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=492which I scanned and then ran through some OCR software.
I have some Freedom Menus from March but they are not the current menu, if you just want to see what one looks like I can scan it and email it to you?

Thanks! If you wouldn't mind, would you be able to take the menu on your flight and scan it.
Is it possible to have a section on the Forum, where members can place their scanned stuff here?

NOT Neccesarily, as there are sites (eg. airlinemeals.net) that have menus already. I don't think the menus are copyrighted.

Any original piece of work is copyrighted. Some websites ignore this, and some copyright holders do not bother to enforce it, but they are still copyrighted works.
On V-Flyer the policy is 'fair-use' quoting, but not scans.

Perhaps a bit off-topic,
however, Just a question regarding the Freedom Menu that Jonathan posted: I was in UC on VS7 on May 11th and enjoyed the very same menu. If I am on VS7 again in September, am I likely to see the same menu?
Regards,
Chuck-

Hi Chuck,
I thought they changed them every three months but I may be wrong.

To confirm,
Freedom menu changes every 3 months, the present menu started beginning of May. Should change August if my maths is correct!

Thanks for the confirmation Southernbelle. I thought it was every three months which means we will have a change again before my UC flight on Sep 4th, wonder what will be cooking then [?]

I presume there is a rotation of menus for a given period (ie. 3 months) Therefore you don't eat the same thing going out of LHR and coming into LHR?
Also I presume every day of the week is different, so that pax doesn't get the same meal

The UC menus vary by route. There are different outbound and inbound menus for each flight, however the menus are the same every day for a three month period, then they are changed.
The two I emailed to you were the England/America route that were in use before the current one decribed above, one was for the outbound flight and the other the inbound, drinks were the same both ways.
I hope this is now perfectly clear?
