If you get to LHR (gasp 3 pilot is surely beneath you) take the tube to Trafalgar Square and walk a block to The Marquis. Walk up to the second floor and you're serenaded by several crates of vinyl played over the best speakers money can buy (in 1985 at Radio Shack).

Again, you aren't even grasping your own logical fallacy. What is being sent in emails and newsletters is not the same as what is being published in textbooks. They are interpretations of the texts and current events as explained by the SMEs. A professor presents the book to a class using various forms of media, to include podcasts. No one is reading the text on a podcast. The "text" in your crap analogy is the contract and the lecture is the email/podcast. How you struggle to grasp this simple concept is truly stunning.
My guess is he had his hat on and was proudly displaying his "Flight Standards" lanyard during the run up to the contract.

Cool Story...I have vinyl too....ABBA to Michael Jackson to Elvis.

But you know what my truck doesn't have? A recored player.

So I listen to ALPA podcasts on my drive to work to keep up with the latest news. Between the podcasts the emails, and Sched Alerts, there is no reason a pilot should be blind sided by being able to bid SC periods, or the fact that we are getting dues refund.

I swear some pilots go out of their way to be intentionally obtuse on union issues just so they can yell at the clouds.

Clearly you don't have the correct truck.

There was someone today (10 year Captain) that didn’t know how to add up his iCrew timecard.

Few days ago a 97 hire Captain didn’t know why their drop wasn’t showing as Qual trip in OT after they posted it on the pilot swap board.
