So Foxnews is waiting for a Delta 738 to come in with a blown tire.
And before the "media doesn't understand aviation blah blah" fwiw the ever hot Megyn Kelly and pilot John Scott is far more realistic than the idiot aviation experts the media calls to explain things. This guy is ****ing me off, the inflection in his voice and he says Delta has 4 parallel runways. Give me the reporters over the aviation experts. Ha, the reporter nailed it, this is most likely a non event. Oh there's your problem, the aviation expert is a corporate pilot and editor of a magazine, I.e. Worthless. Put the reporters back on, dump the corporate pilot trying to be the hero. |

Funny thing about Airplane!. A lot of people think it was a rip on Airport, and similar disaster movies. This is kinda true, but only in concept.
The producers of Airplane actually BOUGHT the rights to a movie called Zero Hour!, and filmed it with the exact same script, except changing a few nuances and lines. To this day, they still own the rights. Funny how inflection and a few lines makes a huge difference. See for yourself: YouTube - Airplane! vs. Zero Hour! Nu PS The airplane noise in "Airplane" is actually the engine noise from "Zero Hour!"...it was the longest running gag in the movie. |

Oh, it's a big pretty white plane with red stripes, curtains in the windows and wheels and it looks like a big Tylenol.

"swap a trip" wrap up

If there's no Denial code on the swap I would call them. This has happened to me twice since June. Both times I called them on it and it was approved on the very next PCS run. Not sure what's going on over in ATL but in my opinion this is crap!
When I asked them why my swaps were being skipped over I couldn't get a straight answer. 90% of the time it hasn't been an issue, but it has been happening to several people of late. Even if there is a conflict with reserve coverage they have to give a denial reason on the swap. Call them. |

Quick question for any one who knows... is MSP-ANC considered international or domestic for 30 in 7 / 32 in 7 calculations?

moved..............

Ok, a domestic reserve PCS question for you guys -
I'm trying to move some X days to maximize my vacation next month. The move would create an 8 day availability block. I know we can have up to 9 reserve days on in a row now but PCS is kicking my request back with the following "1: WARNING - PILOT NEEDS 24 HOURS REST." I called scheduling and they said that I could not move x days that would interfere with required rest which seems to be in conflict with the new policy. Any thoughts? |

Scheduling doesn't know what they are doing. Standard.

The "9 rsv days in a row" is only capable through the PBS phase of bidding. Once you're awarded a line with less than 9 rsv days in a row, you cannot use PCS to create 9 RSV days in a row. The max days in a row that PCS can create is still 6 for domestic categories.
