My buddy was at an LAX layover last year during an anime convention. You should've seen the pictures!

Can't beat the Adult Film producers convention in SFO, at our old hotel. Just waiting for the rooms was an eyeful.

Anyone know the section of our PWA that talks about when you start receiving the new pay rate after training on new equipment? Searched high and low and I cannot seem to find it.

thanks

So true. Now you can bid reserve and let the junior guy fly twice as much so you don't have to.



Not only does our seniority buy us the days off we want but also the ability to shove our work on the junior guys. CHEERS!!!

all in good fun. Kinda

You are paid by whatever category you are in. When you change categories, you get the new rate on the day you are "converted". That is usually the 1st of the month but not always. They have "mid-month conversions" sometimes. It appears on your schedule as MMC.

Section 22.E.6 talks about when they have to convert you. Its based on when you finish sims. (not OE)

Don't know if it's been mentioned already, but I just checked a few minutes ago, all the F/O lines are up, except for the ATL 737 and 88's, and you don't even have to -back door- it to see them...not that there's anything wrong with using the back door.

Happy Hunting!

That's typically the way it goes. There's always a couple gems somewhere in all the overweight nerdy guys that aren't so good at talking to girls.
