Analysts Warn of Sleigh Issues
A group of concerned flight analysts at North Pole Flight Command have filed a report warning of serious issues with the new design of Santa’s sleigh.
The report highlights the progress made since test flights began and warns that not enough time remains between now and Christmas to resolve the issues.
Compounding the issues are the number of sleighs used in the test flights. Instead of helping to resolve delivery issues with the new sleigh it is the opinion of the flight analyst group it is actually taking longer to fix problems.
Another issue they are highlighting is that the schedule of the Reindeer Games has significantly reduced the number of reindeer available to sustain the test flight schedule.
They warn that the newest version of the sleigh, named Helga, is performing so poorly in loaded sleigh tests that the next version of the sleigh cannot yet be built because they haven’t yet determined the number of issues to resolves so that new version can be ordered.
Santa is scheduled to meet with North Pole Flight Command director Elf Roger Star and the group sometime today to discuss next steps.
