Good article about Delta and China with respect to slot times, ability to fly to secondary cities, etc...
Delta Air Lines improves China position with better slots from partners China Eastern & Southern | CAPA - Centre for Aviation

I had cargo pallets break free on a fully loaded C-141 once on takeoff. It was a handful. Closest I've ever come to crashing. The CG change alone is unfathomable. Fortunately, I was still on the runway and delayed my rotation. I can't imagine it happening on departure.

Guys, I have a question about pay during training. I am starting school in June and I have 1 week of vacation. Is it better to bid reserve and collect ALV-2 plus vacation or a bid a line?

I hit 107 hours this month holding a line plus vacation... I was tired, so I didn't take the GS on sunday.. but that 107 could have been 128.

I walked in from running sound for an event tonight, and my wife had bought (unprompted) a 12 pack of Sierra Nevada for me during her grocery run.
Jackpot.
She's a keeper.

If you have vacation then training later in the month, i'd go for the line. You can shoot your pay through the roof with taking the line and then slipping.

That requires dropping inefficient trips and trading for more efficient- and where possible picking up (WS/GS).
Good luck!
My last run at it was in 2010. Had 2 108 hour months in a row! Then I got stuck on perennial reserve....
