Certainly doesn’t bother me. But a direct routing isn’t always best based on winds. But maybe on your short sectors it can shave seconds off a flight.

What also is annoying in the busy sectors is when the Southwest guys check in with “ southwest xxx with you at three five ooooooooo, getting a bit of chop how are rides ahead, looking for direct down the road and how y’all doin today?”

CPDLC domestic can’t come along soon enough.

I won’t even mention the Southwest crews at the Manhattan hotel.

It doesn’t. I’m projecting. Anyone with Captain their “handle” is probably isn’t happy unless they’re doing .78 with their hair on fire. If we fly together and I ask for a wind check on final, are you going to debrief the flight while the hotel shuttle drives off into the sunset without us and give me a lecture on how we already have the atis and a wind check is unnecessary?

Any male involved with cats is a tool in my book.

Sounds like the guy, despite being a pilot, identifies as a flight attendant.

You should have quit after “It doesn’t”. But since you didn’t... well... i’ll leave it there.

So, how are things at Atlas and do you have a link to your cat furniture website?
