Pilot, Flight Attendant and Aircraft schedules should match or at least the first two, every day.
That's the weak link in swop.

I don't think there is any way that we bottom feeders can get a conflict since we have no trips on our lines. Conflicts are so rare anymore anyway, that honestly I don't even submit one. On the ER they have so many pilots that they can break up a rotation to avoid a conflict. they will also award an out of base GS before a conflict too.
Not to digress, but the funny thing is though, I still have no idea what the purpose of short call pilots is in my category. I was on short call a week or so ago, and several GSs went out on trips that would have been perfect for me. I don't get it. Anyway.. I hope this helps

T, I have noticed the same thing - Greenslips with guys on shortcall...? OK

My previous life was spent mainly in A300/310's. After the AA587 accident our DFDAU's were modified to send a message to the crew and MX anytime 0.15 lateral G was exceeded in flight.
Were the DAL/NW 320/330's also modified to automatically provide that alert ?
Thanks in advance.....

Sir, I think you might be correct. I couldn't find much etymology (that's the study of word origins, right? or it something about insects.. I forget) Anyway, not much on the word other than it originated around 1825 which might suggest that it WAS more of a western thing. I stand corrected... I think.

Since most of the news has been bad lately, here's a bright spot. At least according to wiki, here is the Air Nigeria fleet:
Boeing 737-300 8
Boeing 737-400 0 1 order
Embraer E-190 2 7 order
I don't THINK they have anything that can make it across, so hopefully this will just be their pax connecting to our transoceanic stuff. I hope Delta doesn't buy them a few widebodies so they don't have to pay us to fly them. All this stagnation makes a guy cynical!

Oh yeah, could we please let the SWA to Europe thread die or use pictures to get it taken down? We are looking a little insecure over there, and it's not even a fun thing to think about. At least for the junior guys!
