Maybe some of the prunes will retire now, or will they still continue with the "it's all about me strategy"

It looks as if it may get ugly, obtw, I broke my light switch

There was some guidance, unfortunately not the type pilots like to read:

No plans on hiring until Fall, 2010

As for the over 60 crowd, I am of the opinion that this is the best contract to retire under. It is amendable when? Fall 2010?

Maybe a coincidence?

Sorry for everyone in the pool.

Default Kick in the Jimmy

Thanks again to FH and all the NDs.

I'd like to propose a new moniker. I think FIIGMOs is more appropriate. For those not in the know that means F#@& It, I Got My Orders (or in this case...I Got Mine).

would be a lay-up now. doesn't seem to be worth the effort if he isn't coming back, but "don't let the door hit you in the a$$ on the way out DW!"

Nope, magic proxies would still appear out of magic spinchter and defeat your motion by at least 1.

i do my best to give u guys a headsup!....i will lose some seniority on this thing but will suck it up...i have been riding the wave up for almost 14 years and this is the first real downturn....and yes it is all foxhunters fault and these guys who can't hang it up...already heard of an over 60 cpt who fell asleep on climbout at 2 PM!
'1. Thanks for the heads up... all of them ... your batting average is incredible so far.

2. As for sleeping in the cockpit, my previous carrier had the "two communication rule": if you tell someone something twice and they do not respond, you are to assume that they are medically incapacitated and act accordingly.

Maybe the ND will wake up to the sound of me declaring an emergency and diverting to the nearest available airport....
