Default I rode the short bus.

Sounds like a rumor to me. Of Fed's mishaps, which have been with women at the controls? I know about the x-wind gear collapse. What about the 727 over run, the 72 landing short, the bounce and flip, and the others in Subic bay (I think?). I'm not flame bating, just curious.

FWIW, I got one from TPE to KIX. My buddy, (the LCA), said that the Company didn't want to buy him a ticket.

Bill McKelvy used to get 6 line checks a year. 5 of them no-notice. Now he's retired, praise Allah! Had something to do with his being very non-standard.

Normy,

Did you have the NNLC on a trip that you were assigned while on reserve? Sometimes someone will call in sick for a trip, knowing full well, that they were going to get a line check. The line check guy will usually stay on that trip and if you got it on reserve (or picked it up in open time), you might have inherited the line check. I got one that way a few years ago, while doing a HKG to SFS leg. Or maybe it's just you.
