Default WN call signs

We do have a couple of PHX "Single Seat" guys left on property with their preferred name as Maverick or Goose or what ever they like...Its usually a big red flag when you see them on your board to fly with. Its the full cow jacket with the American flag tie and show up 3 minutes prior to push and still take 2 minutes to BS with the FA's. Always a pleasure to fly with americas greatest generation

oh and if you asked them to fly a single leg not using V/S they would have an aneurysm

3 minutes prior to push? Well, if they really want to show up that early, I don’t see any harm in it.

Bahahaha! Spot on!! The only thing you forgot to mention is their handling of the airplane on the ground being more conducive to boxes rather than pax. Embarrassing.....

no if we had boxes it would be a weight shift :

and VNAV is that annoying button that was supposed to be deactivated with the auto throttles :

I was told by a Desert Squadron Kernal that “the autopilot is an excuse for poor airmanship.”

The Compass guy who was a complete arse to LAX ground after he missed his initial call for push then proceeded to call our puny 717 a 'very large RJ'.

Laughs were had
