Actually that could have been me As I head out to work, my wife will tell me "you look like a man headed to the gallows". I'm ok once I get to work, but the grind of the commute and leaving my big easy chair and TV ain't easy.

But your right, I walked into the gym in NRT one afternoon wearing an Ariz State TShirt, made an obscene comment to a friend on the elipitcal and headed for the treadmill. A guy walks up to me and says, "are you Ferd on APC?" Turns out is was Finns who put it all together

Ferd

I've asked every 747 guy if he's Carl, even the female.

If this post doesn't get nominated for an APC Oscar, then there is clearly no justice in the world.

#1) They lie about a merger being in the works (Nevermind that they may have absolutely no idea that this is the case... but don't let anything like THAT get in the way of your vitriol.

C'mon dude... give us the list...

DALPA won't ever be 'off the property' because there are too many lazy pilots who won't step up to do all the work required to chang it. More work would be required with 'new' representation. There will always be some who like to ***** about it, but few who will actually dedicate the time needed to 'fix it'.

What did you think that rocking chair was for?

So according to Crew Scheduling SCs are NOT given in seniority order this month. Doesn't start till next month. They are "spreading the wealth" around. Amazing when I see some people with 3-4 SC already done, and the majority with 0.
