PS. We officially changed the name "base" and did away with "domicile" in the merger.
Finally these are not private blogs and anyone can post their opinion about what it means to be an airline pilot.
Yes I'm skeptical of bloggers.
Also there's been a subtle change in the office. As someone pointed out Flight Managers these days are normally F/Os and the Assistant Chief Pilots are Captains. But I will say I've gotten better service and help from the Flight Managers when I have a problem or question than the ACPs.
I can see reading comprehension isn't your strong suit. If you read my original post I wasn't asking what the requirements are to be a flight manager. I can/did look those up.
I'm an FO/copilot (I'll use both since you seem sensitive to my diction) and asked about life as a flight manager not an acp. Yes I know we fly big jets and outsource little jets. I'm not sure if you're proud of that or not but that's a debate for another day.
Anyhow thanks for your contributions. I'll get off your lawn now.
