Do you own a time machine? Apple TV came out about 5 years ago. Was once tempted to spend some money on it, but saw that it wouldn't really do anything all that special for me.

How many hours have you been sitting on Short Call already?

I called scheduling and got the skinny. I have 78 hrs of credit and this rotation would have put me over ALV of 82. Reserves being done at ALV and scheduling using you to ALV+15 is not in effect yet. The date says NLT 1 Dec and it looks like they won't be doing anything about it until 1 Dec. So I shall return to my Game of Thrones marathon in the crash pad.

Forgot to mention sched gave me a SC with 78 hrs of credit already this month. Gotta fill a square.

Careful, we're kind of sensitive to the idea we and our JV partners RJ bash.

I like airplanes were the outlets don't work in the cockpit even with ground air and APU running and FA's complaining "it cold!"

If it's not safe to fly back with passengers but they're flying it back empty, is it coming back unpressurized?

I remember hearing years ago that the CAL 777 that had the tailstrike on takeoff out of EWR having to be flown back unpressurized to Seattle for extensive repairs.

Kind of a neat flight I'm sure, if you weren't worried about the tail falling off.

Probably unpressurized. That's what they did with the jet in Moscow a few years back.

Wonder if the landing pilot had the middle break?

So just leap frog it back or how far can it go unpressurized?
