In my unbiased opinion you'd look much better in a 765. Four day differences school vs a month of French lessons. My suggestion has zero to do with the fact that you're senior to me.
"Here's another way to get get in trouble!" Must have said both at least 15 times in a 1 hour flight. Kept me off the bus the last time I could hold it. |

+717 But he'd look good in the 330 also. He's a cat sailor, what could possibly go wrong?

Seriously? Most guys you fly with were forced to fly more in 2013 than in 2012? Really?

I presume he's referring to the Pinchanickle bankruptcy. It would have happened without C12K, mind you, but having the additional 76-seaters to place at Pinnacle (plus the SSP sweetener) was what allowed DAL to get their regional "cost reset" without the 9E pilots just burning the place down. I argued at the time that the 9E BK was the actual "fleeting opportunity" behind C12k. But it's a stretch for a 9E guy to blame the paycuts on C12k. They were already BK and if C12k hadn't passed, DAL likely would have done a controlled shutdown to retire 50-seaters unilaterally.

You are right an Airbus is BAD, be sure and stay off.:rolleyes:
Programming an aircraft to effectively recover itself has even been discussed at a “philosophical level,” though Boeing’s mantra remains to leave the pilot in charge, he said. Note that is not air buses mantra. |
Can someone who has been there brief me in on the process for getting vacation assigned after returning from mil leave? Will I just swing by scheduling and tell them, "Hey, yeah, can you get me the following weeks off? That'd be great."

Bingo! We are going to have a ton of training in the coming years. We deserve the best training by the best instructors. One accident or hull loss pays for a lot of instructor pos space and hotels. I Want my instructor to have years on the plane(not years in retirement and teaching a plane he hadn't flown since the late 80s)nor do I want a maddog Fo teaching me the 777 so he can be home every night and get paid the override. The company can afford this. How Bout not paying the override to guys that can't hold the equipment and have guys with experience and actively flying the equipment teach. Give them a override of 15% or so + hotels and positive space.

Guess we will have to agree to
disagree..... I have experienced the difference in quality of instruction between someone who has experience on the plane verses experience flying the box. Just saying. |

No, it's that I took a 30% pay cut from C12K, and it would be nice to know that that money went to other pilots wouldn't it? Instead, DALPA gave it to the company, that is a legitimate *****, is it not?
if not, I invite you to sit down and ****. |
