Technically the Korean War never ended! The fighting was only stopped via an armistice.

 

Everyone remain calm. The thread is back. Fellow mods pulled a good one on 80 & I.

 

Pro Diem widget was hanging up on my trying to get my data, the script didn't run past clicking the "time card" button. I called them, they worked through it on phone with me using the the widget on their server, 10 min later we're done and the data should arrive via email tomorrow. I was impressed, much better than flightline.

While trying to find my training dates, I also ran across how to get your annual sick time usage, which has been eluding me forever! In case someone else out there couldn't figure out how to see how much total sick time you've used, here's the secret:

Icrew> payhours dropdown> timecard > type in option D, ok >click "by year"
viola, there's your yearly sick time usage.
If you type in 1Jun12 on the "by year" screen then click ok, it will work thru the months giving you a running total each time you click OK.

the more you know...
Now I suppose I'll be forced to do my taxes when the pro-diem data arrives tomorrow

 

Were the FAs scheduled to DH on it?

there is still 2 weeks to go... getting an early jump on it?

 

When you"re awarded a MAC charter, you get a pop up page referring you where to review the peculiarities of military charters. One of the references covers passenger handling on empty positioning legs. Sounds like the FCR as written will highlight the fact no one on the crew looked at that.

 

For whatever reason, I got no such popup. Yes, I thought that was strange as I routinely do at least a couple charters a month.

My FCR highlights that no one except the charter desk and coordinators knew of said policy's existance, and the charter desk nor the coordinators could not explain why the policy existed... just that it was a policy. It additionally highlights that my rotation was legal to be changed to show a deadhead, but they would not do that, despite given a significant head's up. The FAs rotation was built with the dhd on it, though the city to which they were going to dhd was changed.

Thought I was done getting gas from another airplane!!

 

Can you imagine the PA you will have to make to the PAX before you refuel.
