LiveLeak.com - Delta Air Lines Pilot Gets Angry at ATC Controller

Wow, I guess that psych test we give doesn't work that well. Doesn't make us look good.

Hey, Shrinks are people too!

Even -they- can have a bad day and let one slip by.

I'm living proof! :eek: :D

I see that, but I also see zero unstacking, which means that no one was forced into such a schedule. It seems likely to me that guys bid that, either to get better trips or to get long stretches of days off.

I can't complain about it... once I refined my bidding, I've been mostly getting what I want. Sure there are some long days, but the QOL and money made vs. days worked is a definite improvement. I'm flying 33.5 hours in the first 7 days of August. :eek: But, that's what I did to myself.

Nice find, wish I were out west to play in those valleys.

Thanks.

Have you seen the Air Cam videos? Kind of the same stuff but with two rear mounted engines with open top and sides so the view is unobstructed. Feels like riding a motorcycle through the sky. Sucks when it rains though! :eek: :D

Ouch!

Yeah, that FAR117 is going to give you a LOT more rest...in a motel room somewhere far away from home!


I must be looking at a different report. I saw one schedule working 15 days in a row and he was a senior guy who clearly picked it. Not sure how 1 becomes lots.

Ops, forgot to look at the reserve lines. One more there for a total of two. He also appears to have bid for it.
