I'm a MD11 FO AND A minority and I live in ATLANTA... So if the assumption is I'm in the wolf pack by others than they can kick rocks... Look at my schedule !! I've had this questions asked to me 2 times in a week if I'm in some wolf Pack and it's bull if the assumption is I'm Atlanta a minority and MD11 FO... I've heard of 3 Wolfpack members non of who live in Atlanta all who are white and all who fly these beautiful around the world trips... It's not hard to figure out if you look at JUNIOR MD11 pilots who fly international always ... Race and Atlanta have nothing to do with it

It's a VTO, not a CIC. So no need to specifically request this trip. Somebody has a general "any international trips" request. But you are correct that if it remains frozen for another week then it won't go VTO.

I agree. However, after all the trips are assigned for the VTOs, there will always be some left over. If this trip is specifically requested, it is likely that it will go to a VTO holder as opposed to being left in open time. I have had a number of general requests ignored, so I don't have much faith that general requests will be filled. Others may have had better luck.

Honestly, from the looks of it, it doesn't look like a fantastic trip to me.

Who wants go to to Djibouti anyway? Although I guess the Sicily layover is nice?

Does the Wolfpack operate out of ANC at all? I see two mil charters open on 02 and 03 MAR.

They are omniscient, therefore they could be operating anywhere at any time. :-)

Don't see how a D/H to FAI and fly back would be that great of a deal for an ANC crew.

Completely wrong. In Alaska we shoot wolves from airplanes. And in most cases, if you're hunting and you see a wolf, it gets shot. Same thing with Grizzlies, unless you have to put in for a permit.

Going to the Fur Rondy fur auction next weekend. Lots of wolf hides for sale.

Rumor is, not confirmed, that they are non minorities and maybe all non men.
