Airline Pilot Central Forums - Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?

Just finished recurrent a couple of days ago and did this exact scenario/maneuver. They told me I flew it just as good as NewK (I was quite flattered), but they did not give me greenslip pay for it. :( :D

I imagine you did get a "simulated green slip"...So they only simulated paying you for working!!

But I think this next one is the most likely possibility... notice it stealthily moving right by ATL twice:

But far more disturbing is the fact that this flies over the Tsquare mosquito farm... TWICE....

You don't read the USA today. You look regarding the SEC pay to play scandal, big surprise there. Like RAH getting another 12 170s. :)

Showoff, reading the GS monitor again :D

I know they are short on the 7ER in SEA, and the 7ER and 73N here it ATL.

Gotta be in a category short of pilots. Hard to plan for or control.

I had 3 in March. 197 pay hours on 75 block hours. In six months I may not be able to WS past the ALV. Get 'em while you can!

Please tell me that the emperor actually has clothes .

It's all about being in an undermanned category with low reserves available, and being available on a moments notice. Otherwise, it just doesn't happen. I noticed that the reserves available number in my category was a negative number a couple of days ago. Didn't really have anything going on at home, so I threw in a GS request at about 8pm. Scheduling woke me up at 7:00 and I was off to the races. I've managed to get 4 or 5 in the past year that way.
