Nope. You get parking at 1 base only.

Thanks in advance.

How do you propose to do that?

On another note, ATL 88b, only 30 guys were allowed min credit condition on PBS. It says because of Admin. Nothing like being forced to fly 90 hours (ALV+15)!


Yeah it would really suck to have to fly international when you are 35 or 40 years old.

You guys are just being pessimists according to some here.

In unrelated news here's a cool pic taken by a Delta pilot.

Remember, commuting is a choice. :)

Is that below 10,000'? And just who was watching the CA while you we're taking photos? :D

I see. Well, that sucks.

Yes, I've heard that. Sadly, paying for my own parking would be cheaper than moving, though the paid move stipend would more than cover the parking costs...I guess we're moving!

Tsquare: [No Bid]

PBS Computer: Where's your bid? Come on now. I just did several thousand bids of whining and complaining and wants and demands and of course nobody cares about me. Just themselves. Where's your bid? No bid? You trust me? SOMEONE FINALLY TRUSTS ME?! I reward thee...

FTB: Okay, here's what I am thinkin

PBS Computer: [blank] you.

It'd suck even more to fly international as a 757/767 Captain at 35-40 years old.

Of course, there is some give and take with that above.
