I use USAir to commute some times as well...same experience. Almost always first class, and very helpful.

I "commuted" home from Desert Storm in the back of a 141 with nothing but a flight suit. I thought I was going to freeze to death.

Guys,
We're considering helping with a medical mission trip to Guatemala in Sept with a group of 8-10. Anyone know if there is reduced fare travel for something like that? I could give them all my buddy passes for standby I guess, but I think Fly Confirmed for Less is only for your passriders. Thanks!

You asked this question on here before and the advice is the same. Call our travel department. They do have group rates. If you cannot find it call the 800-221-1212 number and they will direct you to the correct location.

It is group sales.

Default Marshall Lucky for APU Sheriff

From the comedy classic "Used Cars" - Marshall Lucky is the kind of guy we need as APU Sheriff:

YouTube - used cars - high prices

Caution - Some colorful language at the end of clip

Not to worry. In an actual fight, one of us would be lethal, and the other would bring that warrior his toothpaste. Same as it ever was.

Years later, one would refer to his flying as "combat". Guess which one?

Unless we're teasing hypersensitive '141 drivers. Then the best word is IWAKUNI!

I'll put the 141s safety record up against the Lawn Dart's any day

BTW, the fixed that plane and it flew again. I looked in the forms during a preflight and there was less than a thousand hours on the airframe?!? They zeroed out the forms when they rebuilt it.

I think while that hull was parked for repairs the Navy and Marine Corps finally had "adequate quarters" at Iwakuni!
