Be sure and tell your FO's during your pre-departure briefing that their postion and time for this flight is completely worthless. And to not even put this time in any logbook.
Respect your FO's you prima donna's. With fuel approaching 200 a barell(and it will get there). There is no telling where you'll all be. That FO may be in charge of hiring your arrogant @sses.
Say again your last? I agreed completely with SkyHigh, that turbine PIC is where its at. Know why I know that? I have flown at 7 airlines, and all the wide-body SIC in the world flying int'l hasn't gotten me ANYWHERE. Until I got turbine PIC in my logbook, I wasn't marketable. I know from experience (28 interviews---more than Kit Darby!), been rejected quite a few times.
What does that have to do with being on a 'high horse'? As far as getting furloughed----done that 5 times. How many for you? I know this for sure, regarding fuel, terrorism, hiring, salries, etc---NOONE has a crystal ball in this business. Noone.
And where is my post does it say I disrespect my F/Os?
You're flame-baitin' me, aren't ya?
