Topics of instruction to include;
Who to call after a runway excursion.
Best ways to extract a 737 Max from grass or mud.
The P/C term for an MCAS event, now referred to as (The expected and entertaining trim ride)
How to rationalize and verbalize in a positive light, any and all Boeing engineering deficiencies to the press
When she dives, dives. Enjoy the ride.
1960’s performance in a 2020 airplane. We don’t design horrible airplanes, we bring back the nostalgic romance of early jet flying.

In other words a BS artist. I could be all over that ... except for the fact that it’s a Guppy.

So maybe only former MD11 drivers should fly it because they’re used to LSAS and 170+ approach speeds.

I miss the people, the sidestick, and the tray table. Don't miss the pax peeing in the seat or pooping in the lav sink from my last flight in the bus. Both pilot groups are 99% great people to fly with, both companies burned a lot of trust with the pilots with some really poor leadership. No grudges with team Yellow except for the fake work slowdown TRO that made me get off my butt and get serious with my applications again. I'm still happy with my choices and thankful every day for the opportunities I've been given over the last few decades. I'm one of the 1221 (oops 1220) over at SWA so we'll see how that goes when April rolls around.

Facts.

Don’t think many can say they haven’t felt the helpless feeling of their plane starting to slide on a taxiway.

So it’s such a weak argument to use the Spirit story as a comparison.

Angry It is not boeing

You will work for CCL NOT Boeing!

REAL Boeing pilots have been fighting for a contract for years. You will be screwing REAL Boeing pilots taking this job. CCL is recruiting agency that also recruits for Korean. I flew with a CCL guy years ago and he was terrible. You have to be a U.S. citizen to fly for Boeing NOT CCL. There a lot of foreingers taking these jobs. I wish more would do their research on this and realize how badly we are screwing our unionized Boeing brothers and sisters. Again, it does not surprise me how low people will go.

F*#@
