Also, I'm not automatically impressed with someone having done something for "longer than I've been breathing." If captjns has been an insufferable, pompous, douchebag for as long as I've been alive, which seems likely given his post history, then his opinion means LESS to me, not more.
Hey Alaska badger, you could probably learn a thing or two from Packrat. He probably has more time holding over the SEA VOR than you have in your logbook. But hey... you can be proud having more participation trophies on your shelf than him. Mommy and Daddy can be proud of you. Looking at your previous posts it appears you’re seeking approval from the adults. Keep at it kid.

Which still doesn’t excuse so many of his previous posts. GMAFB

I can usually tell who the millennials are by their command of the English language!

Actually, I do. Between my "retirement" job, playing golf on the course where I own a home and entertaining my family, I like to come here once a day to TRY to impart some hard earned knowledge to people like you who "think" you know it all.

I've been all over the world both in the military and commercially and I still can't even begin to scratch the surface of Captjns' international airline experience. But when I read some of you people's responses to him I'm reminded of an old saying:

"Never try to teach a pig to whistle. Its a waste of your time and it irritates the pig."

Just out of curiosity, what's so special about international experience?

If you knew, you wouldn't need to ask.
