I know where the line is, and sometimes dance right up to it, but this was over it. He could get away with that stuff somehow.

Heard he had a neighbor that he thought was a weenie. He had one of those surgical tubing water balloon shooters. He used it to launch raw potatoes at the guys roof.

We had a DL pilot neighbor where I grew up in Stone Mountain- At the top of the stairs in his foyer was a big painting of himself in his captain's uniform. I get the idea he was the opposite of these guys in the cockpit. :)

HP was a good guy and funny, the other one's I mentioned varied between completely insane and out there.

Cannot figure this out so I thought would ask APC. Trying to drop any of my 3 trips for one specific rotation at anytime during the month. How on the PCS menu do I express this desire...thx in advance.

Wow!! I guess I shouldn't be complaining about the guys I see in full uniform, (ok..... no hat), doing errands around town trying to look like the guy in the Dos Equis commercial....60 miles north of ATL!!! :confused:

He also had one of those sets of nasty fake teeth he would wear when meeting/briefing the flt attendants for the first leg. Gross looking but not so bad that you knew they had to be fake. It was hilarious to watch the reactions.

pcs-swap with the pot-hit enter without inputting anything on the first page - list the drop - and then list the specific rotation to pickup - hit save.

He'd sometimes do his thankyougoodbyes with them. I laughed so hard I cried at the reactions.

A little unclear what you're asking.??

Sounds like you want to swap one rotation for another. You use "swap with the pot" to do that. Just put in the trip(s) you want to drop and the trip you want to pick up. If you don't see the trip you're trying to get in open time and you are just hoping that it shows up during a PCS run, then you will have to fill in numerous lines on the template for each date the trip originates on. There's no way that I know of to use a wildcard for that. You can use a wildcard for trip length (*03)(*04) etc. but not for a specific trip/day.

Hope that helps a little.

Apparently CBS in Hawaii is reporting on a "rumored" DL and HA merger.
