The 757 does fly into DCA.

As it is, I frequently manage a 1 day at the front or back end of a 4 day when I pattern bid. With an easy to reach crash pad, a pilot could knock out an entire month of flying with a couple of 5 day stretches of 1 day trips.

Most of the NYC A320 trips in open time right now are under 6:00. A few are worth 6:20 or under.

Oh, I know what you mean. Like the data you presented to the pilot group in order to rationalize ignoring the JV violations. That was a nice and well thought out presentation highlighting a total and unconditional surrender.

I think since it is now 2020, we can choose the thread as “Fail of the Year”.

It was still a violation. 1 or 100. It is still bad.

Why can't you guys get over him being a captain? It's literally just a dumb title. Seniority list pilots get bought off their trips per the contract whenever these guys fly. Someone gets PAID to not fly.

Sounds like the only problem is people's fragile egos.

So what is the joke? I think more than a few of us don’t know or get it?
