With that sparkling type of attitude, Emirates would be lucky to swoop you up. I'm guessing with the standoff'ish mentality you are a Comair guy.

 

Sorry your not that smart either. Im being standoffish because of the comment he made earlier. I simply stated that I wasn't Mesa. Simple as that.

 

your a little girl!

 

Now that's funny right there! Even though I'm a Comair guy (not for long thank god!) we do have some of those OH4GTO guys with us! Its sad but true! Dumb as a box of rocks!

 

These forums are hilarious. In three posts and you think you know me. LOL. I love this place.

 

Fail X 2

 

OMG. You guys ponitificating back and forth on who is dumb who is not. Who works for Mesa or Comair... Can you at least get "you're vs your" correct.

 

How do FO's get rostered to be relief pilots on long haul trips?

 

Ultra long haul trips have two crews. The augment crew becomes the operating crew on the return sector.

For three pilot trips, with two first officers, the augment first officer is a different pairing number.

It's not like the U.S. carriers where you might be a relief pilot for the whole month.

For those interviewing this week:

Emirates signs $26b order Boeing 777 planes
Emirates on Sunday announced a firm order for 50 Boeing 777-ers, with options for 20 more 777s

On Sunday, Emirates announced it has placed an order for 50 Boeing 777s.
Dubai: Emirates announced on Sunday that it has placed an order for 50 Boeing 777s in a deal worth $18 billion, in addition to options for 20 planes of the same type, taking the total order value up to $26 billion (options included).

The $18 billion-order marks the single largest commercial plane order in Boeing's history by dollar value, said Shaikh Ahmad Bin Saeed Al Maktoum, President of Dubai Civil Aviation and Chairman and Chief Executive of Emirates airline and Group.

This order adds to Emirates' existing world's largest fleet of 95 777s in service. "With 61 777-300- ERs currently in service, this record-breaking dollar value is another milestone for Emirates and affirms our strategy to expand our long haul destinations and continue to excel as a world's leading carrier," said Sheikh Ahmed.

Added Jim Albaugh, president and CEO of Boeing Commercial Airplanes:

"As the largest operator of the 777 in the world, Emirates has played an important role in development of the airplane and its input over the years has been invaluable in the development of the 777 programme." With Emirates order, the 2011 net order book for the 777 currently stands at 182, according to Boeing.



Also using the A310 sim for the interview most of the time now. Sometimes the A320 for those who are Airbus FBW qualifed. Umm, and yes, we happen to have an A320 sim sitting in one of our facilities even though we don't fly the type. Same goes for the A310, but at least we used to fly the type.
