It's that, or NewK was bored on his day off so he flew the 757 for old times sake.

The Capt, like most Capts, had been crying like a little girl since the marker
Just another trip, but did you see the last MEC meeting resolutions? All my Capts get green slip pay now, no matter what the trip

Did anyone else get a statement from ALPA about owing dues? Apparently they think I owe them $231.00 even though I've been on dues check off all year. Not sure how that can be. Of course, my ALPA membership services representative isn't answering her phone......

I think this is going to be a rough life, this sitting reserve at home. Don't have to worry about this anymore:
- Due to WEATHER / WIND, departure traffic destined to John F Kennedy International Airport, New York, NY (JFK) is currently experiencing delays averaging 2 hours and 24 minutes.
- Due to WEATHER / WIND, departure traffic destined to La Guardia Airport, New York, NY (LGA) is currently experiencing delays averaging 2 hours and 51 minutes

One of the ALPA secretaries is getting some new dubs on her Escalade for Christmas. You were selected to help pay for them.

Hey guys,
On a completely different note...my wife is getting ready to buy me a Slingbox for Christmas. Any advice, suggestions, reviews? I've been spending so many weekends away from home it would be nice to have some good TV to watch.
Thanks in advance,
Buzz

You got off easy. The sad thing is, I was looking back thru my records from last year about this time, and noticed I had gotten one for $185 that was owed from the previous year (2008)! Frustrating!!! I have been on Dues check Off as well since 2007

Can anybody help me with some Sec 23 Recovery flying questions?
I was starting a 5 day on Dec 3, & when I went to check my schedule I pulled up the rotation & it looks like they're taking the trip for OE. It says in the remarks section that the LCA will be giving OE to new hire XXXXXX.
So what constitutes as notification of a schedule change?
Also, I see three 4 days & two 3 days in open time so I assume I'll be getting one of those. Should I be proactive & preference a trip?
If my original rotation was a 5 day, & I'm assigned a 4 day do I have to be available for recovery flying on the last day?
Can I pick a 3 day to minimize my work?
Finally holding a line, & now my nice trip will be replaced by some open time junk nobody wants.
