And on the Wow moment? I would think any DC 9 driver would have one, as soon as he steps into...anything else!
Talk about getting hosed, geeze, pushed of a 40 year old DC 9 to a... MD90, 737-800 or A320. Let's see...that's a pay raise AND a newer jet, right?
I wish I could get screwed like that, just once!

DALPA has their panties in a wad. The results of the survey came out with a 30% pay increase average. (I put 99%, how many people did it take to lower my number?) It seems that DALPA is all unglued that they may have to actually do some work at the negotiating table. They were expecting to deliver 10% and declare a victory. Now they actually have to do something or lose their FPL.
I'm going to ask Tebow to pray for us.
The girls have their helmets. Do you have yours?
There, all bases covered.

Orvil, those are still photo shoots.
See, Sea Ray website: Sport Boats : Sport Cruisers : Sport Yachts : Yachts : Sea Ray Boats
and Cessna website: Cessna Aircraft Company | Corporate Jet, Propeller Airplane Manufacturer
One shows women, mostly in bikini's, the other doesn't.
But if you want to keep proving me wrong keep trying.

All I can say 100% of the time I flew corporate jets there it was to offload folks onto a Twin Otter so they could go to St. Barts. I spent some time there but I can't tell you where we stayed, I think it was on the French side but maybe Dutch. There's supposedly a difference, I think French is better? I can't remember who owned what.
Now I don't know a thing about St. Barts, just heard it's 250' yachts and $10 beer. Someone else may know more.
Whatever you do Timbo, don't land short showing off:

But Timbo, if you could be on the beach for an opposite direction takeoff, aw man that'd be a blast that I will enjoy:
fwiw, I was standing next to the runway right as a KLM 744 as it rotated in St Maarten. Had no idea the blast you'd get. We had to vaccum our airplane out for the debris it picked up.

Timbo, yours violates two of the three but it looks like a lot of fun.
