The Call In Honest policy is to be used only a few times in a pilot's career, and only after a well planned commute goes to pot, which this summer, was a weekly occurrence. Hardly a free ticket to work, and only used at the company's discretion. You are still on your own as a commuter.

I'm looking forward to a day when we have more pilots voting who understand and care about scope sales. I welcome the fresh blood in that regard. Also, maybe the flows will bring us guys who don't just read the printed materials and rubber stamp this stuff through base on propaganda. Less bobble heads.
FYI - hockey is not former Compass.

The demographics of this pilot group are about to change and I don't think we will ever sell out scope again.

So when you say they hit hard do you mean you saw the video of the landing?

Does using a sextant make you a member of the mile high club?

We used the sextant port as a vacuum cleaner. Sunflower seeds hitting the tail at 300 mph tended to annoy most maintenance guys though.
I'll admit I'll never be able to use a sextant to determine my position. Not from lack of skill, but lack of desire. There are many things I'll never have to learn to do because of all these modern contraptions/doo-hickeys.

Well I finally got called for a green slip on a weekday at my low seniority! Too bad I was asleep at 2:35 AM when the call came, but I could have made it. I have a special ringtone for scheduling that says, "someone is calling that you DON'T want to talk to."
