Hey! I've flown with "that guy" too. The same guy who likes the 2nd engine to be running for exactly 121 seconds when you are cleared for t/off.

"Better RR rules?" what planet are you on?

If there was any doubt that you are pulling hard for management, it's been erased by your cherry picking.

Is this going to be a separate category from the A320? What kind of pay scale does this have?
