I wonder where we're going to park all these ANC based aircraft. I've heard the plans from the ACPs and ground pounders, but between lack of parking space and lack of airways facilities (more runways and taxiways and maybe even an approach without a tailwind landing) just seems like we're going to outgrow ANC very soon.
Congrats to the newbies...see ya at Humpy's

Congrats to both, curious what was your prior flying backgrounds? I have a few friends hoping to work for Brown soon and are curious...also why the draw to International?
Thanks Vito

Kidding aside I never wanted to do it, but coming from the whale to the bus I missed the one leg to the hotel.
Never sitting the sort
Getting away from SDF

FWIW, and I am not trying to stir the pot! I had a fed on the jump-seat 2 weeks ago and he said by the end of 08 we will have a 747-400 base in SDF. It's only a matter of time, in his words. And he was a fed assigned to UPS.
I would guess that both seats would go very senior.

It only makes sense that this would happen sooner than later. I've never been up to PANC, but from what I've been told is that there is not a lot of space up there to put all of these airplanes as they come through. Also, they are already hurting for bodies up there on the -11 (sick calls, JA's, sim fiasco, etc.).
I also agree, that I think both seats would go senior when it comes to SDF. We'll see....

I know RJ drivers that went (in the last year) to Cathay, Atlas, Kalitta, and one turned down a Polar job. How can they put newhires in the whale but Brown can't?
