where is the first place that i can find my schedule for training next month? I understand that they'll send me a letter by mid month before i start class but will it show anywhere else first? I'm trying to figure out how to bid for next month and figure out when i need to order my manuals by? thanks

Super,
At the bottom of the Crew Resources page on the Deltanet are the sim schedules. They have schedule spreadsheets and individual sim scheds for each fleet type. They should update them well before the 12th. Hope that helps.

Sorry-It's ATL training center fleets, hope it still helps.

If you have training next month it should be on your calendar in PBS. It won't show your sim periods, but will show your training days. Mine were on my calendar when I downloaded it tonight.

When I say what time is the Clamp show please read it as: what time will Clamp's wife have been asleep long enough to not notice that he's slipped out of bed to go feed his APC habit?

I just need to know when to sync my iphone (I haven't worn a watch in 7 years now) and sneak out as well. No shame.


Greetings Brer Unable to Put PBS Entries Before the Deadline,

Personally, I've found the sexy voice and answering the phone as "Delta Pilot Services, how may I direct your queary?" as an extremely effective method. (I actually do this!)


It seems as though the magic time for me to vampire my way out of bed was 1130. Wifey has to get up at 0600 so she was out ike trout early.

This is one of the contributing factors in the MD11 Air China accident that landed in the typhoon. I wonder if it will be a factor in the FedEx crash?

Perhaps it was these guys?

YouTube - Alitalia Hard Landing MD-11

I got the idea they ALMOST did exactly what FDX did in NRT among the other flip over accidents. They were all under the same conditions... bounced hard and began to roll as they got back in the air.

How about that Captain's voice? I need to have a deep booming voice like that. I bet that FO had to buy all the beer the rest of that trip.




I seem to remember a song being written about his AT technique:

"Hands off the throttles, hands off the throttles...lookin' like a fool with yo hands off the throttles!"

Super,

If you are looking for start and end dates go to the DBMS vacation or training tab and follow the prompts to display vacation or training and it will give you start and end times. Be aware that training for march doesn't have to be posted until the 5th of the month prior.....or......tomorrow.

I officially have a new phrase to use for whenever I make one of my glorious "arrivals."

Flying a 767 domestic tomorrow night, so that could very well be my first opportunity.
