I'll start off by saying that I wear my hat. Not because I like it but because it's part of the uniform and if someone called me on it I would know that I was wrong and I really don't like that.

What I would like to point out is that some of the guys that roam the concourses in ATL (affectionately known as the hat Nazi's) get so fixated on the hat that they don't realize that they are out of compliance of the same section of the FOM (CH11) but it's ok because they are wearing their hat. You have to look no farther than this months CQ disc to see an example of this.

PBS will bid to +/-7.5 hrs of the ALV, unless you ask for a MIN or Max schedule.

Trying to picture how wearing long sleeves would improve the above.





Nope, can't do it.

I've vented on this already to a kind soul, but as a PSA I want to share. If you're flying into HOU and have a fed on board be prepared for a strange one with the initials BN. If you've had a similar experience with BN I'd be interested in hearing your story. Can you really tell the pilots you've just jumpseated with "You guys passed." if you never had an ATP?


Here's a picture of my shark, Jesse.

Of course, your a late night Elvis impersonator!

Were you one of the Elvis's on the State Farm Commercial?:D

They do get hot, even the ones with the micro holes in them. Plus you have to keep up with them. The most critical issue is the cutural "me-too!" zeitgeist we live in though. I'm fine with wearing them as per ancient nautical inspired aviation tradition dictates because people love old school nostalgia and pagentry. Fine. Cool. Traditionalist. Bring it.

But its asinine that we have to wear them while the FA's don't. Most if not all global foreign airlines, especially the dual subsidized ones trying to poach our industry out from under us while pretending its merit based because of their "service" all have FA hats. Parity baby. Make em wear hats, FTW. Then we're all in this together.

Can't say.

What I can say is that those guys have one hell of a tough Nondisclosure agreement... Or so I've heard.

Hey folks,
Traveling to England later this month with family. Kids are older, the youngest 13. Any must sees or logistical suggestions?

Veteran Delta pilots, help a new guy out here, please.

Any of you use the UFlyMike headset? Is it approved for use? Thanks in advance.

Churchill museum is fantastic along with the war rooms. They are next to each other.
Tower of London.
One of the bus tours in London allows you to get the lay of the city and pick specific sights to see more in depth.
