Default N621FE flying

Maintenance friend watched it take off this late afternoon. Most likely the functional flight (9054); ya can’t even do that without FAA approval.

This is good! If the TA wasn’t projected to pass with flying colors the MD might have had a different outcome. That was 500 in the internal pool. Might actually see some hiring now.

Happy to lose it but I haven’t lost it yet. Revenue service or it doesn't mean a thing.

My understanding is that we’ve already had our first revenue flight.

Great. I'm glad to be wrong. Been wrong many times before. I'll be wrong again. You good now?

I get that you don't like that I'm opposed to age 67. Have enough mental clarity to let yourself look at other threads with a clean slate - or be an angry old man. It's your life.
