Standing by for regularily scheduled back door double entendre jokes....

Front door is open now too - though you can still use the back door if that's your thing :cool:

I guess try both?

The day I go for my permband I'm going to post some emoticons at are very funny in this regard.

The thing is that whoever he/she is, they don't consider the "ER" in ATL to be a widebody category. :rolleyes: I mean, I guess they don't think those trips to Europe in a 767 to be widebody flying.

Maybe they should be blaming the 744 Captains for not retiring at 60, if that's what he means by "widebody"? I mean, 61% of them are past 60 and still hanging on...

Maybe FTB is stuck in the snow, not snookered on Torpedo and can gin up a cool graphic showing where the over 60 folks are sitting? ;)

I can do this. After the kids go to bed but remember there are junior over 60 folks too. So I guess I could grab top 1/2 of seniority and graph those. Probably needs to be bar charts and separated by base or it'd be too huge. Or I guess I could do aircraft.

Thanks for the head's up DH.

After looking at my award, I think I'm the one who got backdoor'd! :eek:

I'm sitting on 67 hours and with 30 trips in open time, but not a one of them can I pick up!

And it's not just me, most of the guys around me are in the same fix, with 65-68hrs lines, and we are at the midpoint of line holders. The shortest trip in the pot is about 30 hours, all the way up to a couple 62 hr. trips, but we can't pick any of them up, due to the 72:30 ALV+15 cap = 87:30, but with the shortest trip being 30, well, you'd have to be at 57:30 or less to white slip it.

Maybe I can white slip a MD88 3 day worth about 15, and get some landings??

Or put in a greenslip and pray for snow?

Bring back the Bow Wave! ;)
