I say enjoy flying the 777 with the warm milk, in by 10 p.m., Matlock rerun watching, furlough them so I can keep my carryover crowd. Then I can get to the MD11 and fly with folks who aren't excited about "6 tires on each bogey"
I thought it was "Cooter".

I been trying to figure out this goofy Cliffy170 guy. Here's what I've decided ... We haven't heard from "Hero Matt" since we castigated him here, Cliffy170 is just about goofy enough to be "Hero Matt" with a different screen name?

Cliffy, do you have your own web page with pictures of your house, toys, girls (maybe paid companionship?), schedule, and yourself?

Enquiring minds want to know?


PS ... my UAL Capt. neighbor emailed me and asked if I knew Hero Matt when he stumbled across him online (I suspect he's a laughing stock at UAL also?)

As an f/o you may get to ride in the 777, but you won't be flying it.

Take a look at the sample lines. Four landings a month. They'll go by seniority - and the captain's going to take at least two.

where are the sample PAIRINGS to go with the lines?

I'd like to see how they plan on scheduling MEM to PVG (or MEM to HKG) in an 18 hour duty day with 16 hours block max

(as per current contract w/4 pilots on a "non A380" aircraft)

ps - it was Cruiser in Stripes - I think Cooter was in Dukes of Hazard?

Hehe, Cliffy has bogey envy!

Default Now you see it...

They actually had the sample pairings and the sample lines online at first. I wonder why they decided to remove the pairings? Guess we didn't have the need to know.

Before they pulled it, I saw a 145 hour HKG layover in there. Nice reset for a four leg trip. 13 hours out, 4 hour intra-asia trip, 2 hour intra-asia trip, 13 hour leg back.

This post clearly shows a healthy skepticism of company motives. You are well on your way to becoming a "proponent of hysteria". Welcome aboard.
