So SD says we don't need pro diem anymore. Just follow this link... Link is dead. I tried doing a Deltanet search and just a manual click here and there search to find the directions without luck. Anybody else figure it out?

search for the exact name of the product he's talking about only brings back instructions on how to do it for FAs in iCrew.

Pure BS. In Dec I was trying to APD and it never went through. That was my last month before it reset

Iran Air just ordered an entire airline's worth of jets from Airbus today. I'd really like to see us partner up with them, eventually. Tehran is a good location for a hub and would make a nice bulwark against the ME3 carriers. Things are really changing rapidly in that part of the world...

Wonder if those 8 or so C-130s at Dobbins will be finally delivered. Been sitting there since '79 in their desert paint job. Look at Google Earth, south of the runway.

Does this mean that the note in the airway manual that says (basically) don't land in Tehran if you have anything less than a fire on board, might be removed? I never really liked the idea of flying single engine 800 miles thru the mountains to Oman. Not that it happened. There are some BIG mountains over in that part of the world. Not that we fly in that part of the world anymore.

I always found it sad that Iran has a bunch of lakes and not a single wake from any kind of watercraft on them. Maybe they can get jet skis now.

I'll bet those lakes are cold as a mf. I'll put money on DL finding the old PanAm agent still living in Tehran to be the new station mgr...

I think they are in pretty bad shape now. LM was actually paid by the US govt to keep them maintained for awhile. Now they are just rotting away
