His deceit had nothing to do particularly with his 'heritage'. The guy had been recently living in Dallas, where he got his DA -20 Type Rating . .and met Asst. Chief Pilot Kupperman at the hotel bar, so we all attributed it to something he picked up in Texas. As you might be aware, we got a lot of major *********s coming out of there (TX) lately. Interestingly enough, he was the ONLY guy I know of who was hired during that 'start up' time period with the requisite DA-20 Type . .who did not get it at the Plantation School House in MEM.
Here's another one for you . . . Shalom

The apology came from me fully heartedly! Lehit btw is short for 'Lehitraot' - which means 'goodbye' in Hebrew (or 'to be seen again' if you really want to translate word for word)
You wouldn't happen to know that outlet in TX that has Mr. Kuperman in it would you?
Toda (thanks) ve'Lehitraot (and goodbye)

I work for Connie, we have 2 guys living in Thailand and one in Scotland. They are on their own to get to a company served city and ride the system from there. They do lose a day or two on the commutes, though most lines run consecutive days so its just once a month.

They have to pay out of pocket to get to a company serviced city. Pretty cheap to get from Bangkok to Hong Kong. Getting home, the company will buy them a ticket to fly anywhere in the lower 48 and then they are on their own to get accross the pond. The one Captain JS pretty regurely out of SFO.
