Employers indemnity, or indemnity. That's it. Employers protect themselves from consumers and its employees and when they can't protect themselves from their employees, as in cases of strict liability, they implement policies that allow them to recover damages from the employee. "Have you seen my paycheck?" It is no brilliant legal strategy, but no less is true, "you can't get blood from a Turnip." Kind of like when they crammed the Dude's head down the toilet. Dude pointed out it was unlikely the money they were looking for was in his commode. |

If you time it just right, though, you'll upgrade half-way through your career. Then you can retire with symmetrical hearing loss. That's my plan anyway.

One of the FO's I was flying with had a Bose noise canceling headset but it was rigged by someone. Flymike? I can't remember, but you take a regular $200 noise canceling headset and this guy has this piece that goes into it so that you can use your mic AND plug in your ipod/iphone and listen to it as well. Man on the ER I wanted one of those. Now on the 88, I don't seem to have the time. I have to brief as soon as we level off I start talking away. Thanks to the ER, it takes me 15 minutes to brief an arrival. Down from 20 minutes. And I'm lying. But I did want one of those headsets for like $250 or so. The FAA office was very much up in arms about this, and was even cited as a possible cause in an accident. Not sure if anyone at DAL-s has looked into this or not. |

Some fleets have a hot interphone and some don't. The 320/319 does, I assume the 330 does as well. The 744 and 757 does not, as for the 747 and DC9 I am unsure.....

Dude pointed out it was unlikely the money they were looking for was in his commode. Very true. Once they got a judgment against you, they would be looking for you pay up until you died. Wait, I'm sorry, even after you die, they would go after you estate. So, even when it's over, it's not over. How does it feel to be a potential turnip? :D New K Now |

No one uses it, as far as I've ever seen. The DC-9 is pretty quiet already. The Buses use a more sophisticated version of a hot mic. It's so subtle you hardly notice it. The 757 you don't need it. Don't know about the whales. I wouldn't worry too much. The "SOC" version of the airline isn't going to resemble the "SOC+1" or "SOC+2" version much at all. They're going for speed right now, and once done, there's going to be a lot more change. Nu |
