I picked up a 3x reserve day before my 4 day. They turned the reserve day into a overnight and start my 4 day the next day. Is this a junior man and is it worth the 3.5 hours of pay? Thanks

It's a jr man extension.. yes it is worth it to get the stamp and 3.5 hours extension pay on the.... I've also been lucky to get an additional 3.5 hours extension for day 1 occ the 4 day..

That's the thanks you get for picking up open time.

Never pick up reserve prior to a trip as you will certainly be jr manned.

Everyone should strive to be like me.

Been too busy reading the ASAP scorecard after a few messages about a subject we were talking about earlier.

Hello everyone! I would like to take the time to discuss winter flying. PLEASE, make sure you go into the cockpit of any flight you are DH'ing on and tell the crew how to do their job! I can't emphasize this enough. As a model aviator/FAA, I have learned that pilot's are benefitting from my vast knowledge. As a matter of fact, I am the sole reason an aircraft was deiced!!! Can you imagine that if I had not talked to these pilots, there is a 1 in a million shot that they may have not deiced? I am better than everyone here, until it comes to following ATC instructions. I find it better to do my own thing as I am former ATC and make better decisions than they do. The other day I was scolded by an ATC person because my idea was better than his and he did not see it this way. We need more people like me to stand up to these ATC'ers in order to operate more efficiently. Who cares if my company believes I was in the wrong. I believe I am always right, and my abilities show this. I can not wait to flow and bring my expertise to American Airlines. I will be a valued asset and probably asked to be a CP. Until then, I will not accept constructive criticism, follow instructions, or even listen to my FO's. I am their superior and if they were so good, they'd be captains. I look forward to continuing to be better than all of you, for as long as I'm here!

Well we all know who that was about now. I did get a good laugh off the comments on his post...

How long will the company allow for his antics? I mean hell, he posted a bunch of nonsense after he failed upgrade the first time. Literally makes post saying "my company doesn't believe I'm ready to be a captain but I totally disagree." Goes onto blame all the instructors and the process in general. I'm sorry, there is no place for this here, or at any airline. Be a team player and admit when you are wrong and learn from it.

He’s such a good captain because he had 2 times to figure it out! Imagine had we all been given the opportunity to go through upgrade 2 times in under a year.
