OK, so some news and rumors then, it is now completely official that we dropped the ball, yet again on getting Horizon's -200's. Don't know how many people outside of PDT have heard. Nobody was expecting them to come anyways. I kinda hoped they would come but I wasn't expecting them too either. In addition I heard we will still be doing seasonal slowdowns come this winter. Just rumors though nothing official.
Oh, and about the headset argument, I agree that I like people who use the interphone, but if they don't I just use the standard headset installed in the aircraft. It works and I find it more comfortable then using my head-clamps.
