If you trade Approval for ERIRV with AERLO, you're trading FBC for SDSC. If
the choice were only between Approval and ERIRV with AERLO, I'd probablly
choose ERIRV with AERLO, unless that od's FBC violation turned out to be
frequent and flagrant.

Hi James,
Great stuff. Overall I think both your analysis (of the issues) and
