Ay Carumba!

Word at recurrent this month was the "feds" are going to "hang" the next guy who slides off the runway!

Let's hope they don't...................

It depends on if he is senior to me or not. This job has made me heartless.

It's the NW DC-9 tradition carried on here. Every winter at least one Douglas has to go snowmobiling.

The other tradition is FDX breaking the landing gear on a MD-10 every year.


hmm.... both Douglas products.... hmmmm.....

Haha....wouldn't say its a Douglas thing. The 73 does it on a semi regular basis too I don't think NW had many of those.

Truth... the way that thing (particularly the 800) brakes reminded me a lot of flying the maddog. Coming down final at 155 knots doesn't help, either.

If you were in the commuter room at JFK today between 2:30-4 and you happen to have a hat that might not belong to you on accident, I would love to get it back. It didn't have a name in it, I blame my kids who play with it too much. Thanks.
