Remember that you're two clicks away from making it fly like a DC-9. |

Not really. There's no cables, pulleys or mechanical trim tabs in an Airbus. Hand flying all you are doing is manually inputting the potentiometers that the autoflight and computers normally do. And what kind of airplane flies better manually when you take your hands off of it?!?! It's black magic and sorcery, blasphemy, and made by three cheese eating surrender Moakies (monkies, but that was too funny an auto correct :eek:) be afraid, very afraid, especially if you are senior to me :rolleyes:

Any BNA commuters care to PM about parking?
In the past I've parked there infrequently so I've never had a monthly parking pass anywhere. Its been kinda expensive to pay as you go anywhere I've gone. I'd be open to ideas on a pay as you use schedule too because I can use STL or BNA both so it'd be nice to not have to pay if you aren't using. I have that in STL right now. I'm thinking about making BNA my primary commuter airport (I'm 2:15 from STL or 3:00 from BNA but its a wash commuting to ATL by the time you fly from STL back over BNA). Looks like BNA-ATL has just a little better service than STL-ATL too. |

i can only dream of those numbers!:D |
A local 777 F/O that could hold 737 captain in NYC. If he got a SLI gig teaching the 777, would he get paid 737 CA rates? And anyone with an opinion about whether it's worth the extra work for someone that did not have to commute?

I'm not inclined to reveal. I've given several clues as to my seniority and background, and narrowing it down further defeats the purpose of an anonymous board. I'd hate for guys to judge me in person based on my sometimes outspoken persona here, which I don't believe is indicative of the "real life" me.
