Looking for advice on non-polarized prescription sunglasses. It seems most places only do polarized glasses.

Any thoughts?

Except for Lilith, Cheers would be perfect. Perhaps the Dirty Dozen instead?

IMO we don't need more vacation. Even the 5th week is rediculous in the context of the current value we currently recieve. We need better vacation time/credit worth more. At least 5 hours a day. If that means one less week per year or it takes more years to get extra weeks then so be it but the current system is aweful, particularly for reserves who effectlvely only get 3 days off per "week" of vacation because of the horrible level of credit it pays. Some want to bring the 6th week back and that would only give the problem more inertia and make it harder to fix. Even worse are the ones that cling to the idiotic notion of "touch drop" where guys could bid 12 day trips barely touching either end and get a month off for every week. Well guess who pays for that?

What weeks one gets for vacation is and should be a function of seniority. But we do not need to create a system where one's seniority can leverage a month off for each week while junior pilots (in category) only net a few extra days off for a "week".

We don't need more vacation days. We need more vacation credit per day.

Anyone thinking of bidding Atlanta on this next bid had only a few weeks to get their crew car ready. Better get started on your hooptie b'donk. These machines aren't available at your local Chevy dealer. Got to build them yerselves for true Atlanta street cred.

Scoop, I think I remember reading that you are a reservist or retired military. I've had great luck with my prescription shades from Oakley's Mil & Government store https://secure.usstandardissue.com/

just take a picture of your mil ID and email it to them, and you can set up an account. Then you can send them your prescription. Very reasonable prices for a great product.
