Dr Conrad Murray to the rescue as he gives medical assistance to plane passenger (despite having had licence suspended)

Michael Jackson personal physician Dr Conrad Murray assisted a passenger in distress aboard a flight today.

Murray, who is facing a charge of involuntary manslaughter in the 2009 death of the singer , leapt into action after the pilot made an announcement halfway through the journey.

The 57-year-old was flying from San Francisco to Minneapolis with Delta Airlines this morning when the drama unfolded, RadarOnline reports.

Murray, who had his California medical licence suspended earlier this year, assisted a man in his 40s who was 'dizzy, clammy, and a little disoriented', the website claims.

Despite the impending trial, Murray is still able to practise medicine in the state of Nevada, where he is mainly based.

A fellow passenger told Radar that Murray along with another doctor helped to stabilise the man.

'The captain of the plane decided against making an emergency landing, and the flight landed as scheduled in Minneapolis,' the source said.

'The man was met by paramedics, and he was checked out. It was decided he didn't require further medical attention.'

Apparently the man in distress did not appear to recognise who Murray was, although other passengers were.

Last May Murray was on a US Airways flight and treated a woman who had fainted.

He will stand trial next month after being accused of administering a lethal dose of drugs to the King of Pop before he suffered a cardiac arrest.

You must be in an airport terminal with birds flying around in it?

Thinking... Newark?

DTW has quite the bird population.


And speaking of birds... she's still singing like a beautiful song bird with larengitis through an autotune:

Thanks

Money making idea- pay for valet baggage on mainline aircraft.

I love valet baggage on DCI, I think we should do it on mainline. That way for $5 you can drop your bag off when you get on and walk off and have it waiting for you instead of trying to find a place in the overhead or losing it forever or for a longer time than you'd like to that nexus "we'll put it below for you."

That's it. That's all I got.

Supposedly they are waiting to hear about the slot swap deal before putting out the next bid.

Ok. Here's a surprise. I don't understand something about the contract -- again.

For the first time since we have switched over to the new rules, I am senior enough to pick up some good trips in open time.

For next month, I'm thinking about picking up a white slip trip that will take me well over my original credit time. (75 now, new trip will take me over 100)

I remember that there is a restriction on your block hour limit and have researched it. From my calendar and research I don't think I go over the block hour limit. (Lot's of DH's on this trip)

But, on the bottom of my calendar is also says MAX P/UP 12 hours. So, I research this and come across this little tidbit for white slips....

"Your projected credit may not exceed the ALV + 15 hours for your position."

Which means I can't pick up the trip without dropping something else that keeps me below 88 hours.


So, here are my questions:

Is this right? I can't pick up this trip without dropping something else?

If so, how is it I was hearing stories about people getting 100 and 150+ hours of credit last year? What did they do. What can I do?

Thanks in advance for any help or clarification. :o
