You already can! Check the British supplement in your SOP - has to be done with a British accent though.

I never tire of seeing that video and it makes me want to scream around the sky at 120kts

I got a better idea. Why don't we bid on SC just like we do on EVERYTHING ELSE? That would force the company to reveal just how many SCs they use -statistically- on every... single... day.. of... the... year, and make adjustments accordingly. Extra SCs required because of weather or whatever, get premium pay.

how but stuff management (any airline) says?
"we're going to use the RJs to grow the market"

This is such a silly you tube trend right now, I just started seeing these last week, and they are starting to spread like crazy. But I like it! They make me laugh. FTB you are the creative photo shop guy, do you do creative video making too? I bet there will be an airline pilot one soon. The last 30 seconds could just be a series of pilots talking to women saying "So, did you know I'm a pilot?"or "Did I mention I fly airplanes?"

LHR-IAD was what was on the video. I love how setting takeoff power was full forward on the throttles and turning on the reheats. Amazing machine.

This amazes me....

In 2011, there were 18 total P-56 airspace violations for flights departing DCA. Of those, 6 were Delta flights and 5 of those occurred in the last four months.
