What is the difference between "best practices" and gouge?

Expand upon that....

Best Practices is something that the training dept puts out, and gouge is more rogue....

Okay, everyone place your bets and see if we can encourage ACL to play the hot/cold game.

1) We're getting 52 new A320s?

2) We won't MD anyone in this AE.

3) GUAM 777 or GUAM DC9ETOPS

4) Replacing 742s with second hand 744BCFs from the large inventory in the desert.

6) We just bought ANA

7) We're getting a 100 seater at mainline, either Ejets now or Cseries later.
I thought you guys already had 100 seaters at mainline?

Well, one is two words and the other one and spelling are two that I can think of!

But, seriously, I don't think there is any difference at all as far as you are thinking. I look at "gouge" as a way to learn systems easier and "best practices" as how to best operate the jet the way the company wants me too.

Agreed, just wondering if its good enough to be a best practice...than why isn't it in the books?

The strong rumor is this Friday. But I would venture to guess that it will be out by the 16th either way. The way that memo was worded, it appears they want it to close on or before the 31st with the results being posted shortly after the new years holiday.
