Unfortunate, if the pilots like it, it is stillborn.

Then don't. I like hearing about new technology and airplanes.

I don't like when people seem to know how everyone else should post on forum boards.

Oh and wait, isn't this thread called 'C Series Info'? Perfect place to gush about a new plane.

Always have told new-to-Airbus pilots:
“Hold it like you’re holding your CA’s (FO’s) d*ck.”

Seems to be fairly effective.

Well you are not exactly coming across as the friendly type here. He is obviously enthusiastic about the C- Series and its actually a refreshing change from the usually more cynical (usually with good reason) Pilot group.

I do second the idea that a good joke every now and then can't hurt either.

Nov 6th AE is still on. Someone on CC attended the training hotel flight ops visit and crew resources said so.

I don't know if anyone else has heard this, but the "other forum" made reference to a quote from Ed Bastian saying that we won't take delivery of any C Series frames until the US assembly line is up and running.

I have no confirmation of this but I wouldn't be shocked.
