"The MOAB of all MOAB's on Friday May 14th!
All training, except 777, canceled and excessed pilots return to their previous seats.
July paycheck will include payback of all money stolen through 4a2b! "
What you talkin' 'bout, Willis?

1. Due to recent safety issues the FAA is going to require a SAFETY OBSERVER in all 2-man cockpits. This will require 1000 new pilots in the next 18 months.
2. All 727s to be retrofitted with glass, FMS, GPS, etc. Third engine will be removed in lieu of 2 much more efficient pod engines. This will eliminate the S/O but will now require the safety observer like all the others.
3. All aircraft will be stripped to bare metal saving 1.5% in fuel because of reduced weight.
4. 4A2B goes away in July. Management feels real bad and gives everybody $25-50K.
5. I find more projects to do around the house on my off days.

cologne would be great. Looked into DOD schools in Wiesbaden, but it would still be too expensive:
These tuition rates apply to non-Dod students attending Department of Defense Dependents Schools (DoDDS) during SY 2010/2011:
Category Federally Connected
PSCD and Sure Start Programs $10,740
Full Day Kindergarten and Grades 1 - 6 $21,480
Grades 7 - 8 $22,620
Grades 9 - 12 $23,748
we still need a better FDA. My wife would move today if it wasn't so expensive.
