Hopefully it's the kind of STD penicillin will knock out. More importantly Mrs. Buzz doesn't find out.

Thanks!

Dude, thats a bummer!
Hope you're back soon, sans STD ;-)

After six months gone from flying airplanes (displaced to the MD88) I had to do a special requal, 2-day affair, to get back up to speed on the 73N.
Day 1 is insane, especially if you aren't paired up, Day 2 is much better, just a MV and LOA...

If you're out more than 12 months (and less than 36 months) its a normal requal, 5-7 days depending on being paired up or alone...

Cheers
George

George is prolly right about the syllabus you should be looking at, I didn't look it up. Anyway, it's the 2 day, like recurrent.

I am not the only new guy lurking either...and we are all looking for guidance. Or at least some great rumors to impress our Captains with so we get a positive review!
Welcome aboard. It's great to have you at Delta.

I finally talked my wife into going there (She didn't like the name because newk's sounds like its been microwaved..... sigh....), and it's a hit. So that's going to happen more often.

APC meet up heads up: Throw up the dual underboob feel sign at the E concourse Qdoba around 1745E today to join Timbo and I. I'll be on my way to the 9th leg of the day after clearing customs as is standard fifi operational requirement.
