Is JC still at Com Air? Or did he retire?

Hey Boomer, don't mind Bacon...he is a new guy on the board. Most of the guys that have been reading this board more than a month or two enjoy your perspective and realize your non-affiliation with JC and the gang.

I would venture to say that most Comair guys, former and current, are not JC fans. He had just as many enemies within Comair as he did outside of it.

I left Comair Spring of last year, and he was still there when I left.

He's still on the seniority list but it looks like his kid is gone.

Rumor had it he (his son) interviewed at Big D, when they were hiring last time.

Going down should be no problem, and you SHOULD be able to clear with the crew if you write you name in on the GenDec. If memory serves me right, you can handwrite your name on the form and it's okay, but you'll want to verify that.

Coming back is a different story. They had no idea what a jumpseater was. The line for security after clearing the ticket counter was incredibly long and inefficient. Make sure you show up with LOTS of time (ie before the crew gets to the airport). Of course, if you already know the captain you have an advantage as he can probably grease the skids for you.

Have fun. If you are adventurous, I recommend taking the bus or renting a car and heading up to Bucerias (sp?) which is about 25 minutes north of PVR on the coast. It's a small town with CHEAP beer, CHEAP tacos, and a nice quiet beach. Not sure how the recent Mexican ganglandscape has affected that area though, as it's gotten a lot worse since I was last down there.

Buen viaje!

Thanks Leine. I plan on reserving the JS both ways prior to leaving the states, so I should be on the JS screen when they pull me up...no?

Also, I will be in uniform, doesn't PVR have a seperate crew line like CUN?

Pretty much, didn't fly with many guys that had nice things to say about him when I was there. I blame the system for electing the MEC chairman for keeping him in place so long (though when only 50 poeple out of 1500 vote in elections apathy is big part of it).

JC and company ran up a nice bill for the Comair pilots to pay. They still owe me 240 bucks.

Every DL pilot I have met on the JS, in the terminal, or at the bar has treated me nicely.

I've been trying to figure out who I should bet on in tonight's game.

It was a tough decision but then I heard one crucial data point. Clearly the deciding factor.
There are five teams in the NFL that don't have cheerleaders -- the Bears, Browns, Giants, Packers and Steelers. Those teams have won four of the last six Super Bowls (dating to the Patriots' most recent title) and have made up half of the Super Bowl participants in that time.

But I gotta go with the girls. So the winner is ---

Hang in there Boomer. I'm looking forward to the day we fly together and drink some beers.
