Well, it looks like ASA started sending out furlough notices and they too just had a similar type meeting. I either sense that this meeting will be to discuss that big changes must be made to mitigate furloughs(hence keeping DS out of the meeting), or what the next round of furloughs is going to look like.

Just saw the message on epic from our fearless leader Bendoveritis... Way to go team over the holidays! yay! <think crank yankers>. He even thanked those who 'went the extra mile' by picking up trips.... lol, maybe someone should tell him that we have pilots furloughed, maybe he missed that on orientation day. Since he was hired more than a year after me, shouldn't he be furloughed?

So, TLR on the 50 is not going very well. Everyone is complaining about it. People taking off with wrong thrust settings and getting high ITT temps. I think there is just an accident waiting to happen. I believe that if enough people will complain, they will go back to the Runway Analysis book, but who knows with this company...

Is it an issue in the training or are did people just brain dump it the day after their class and didn't bother to brush up on it? It isn't a very hard system at all.

I hear ya. It's probably a combination of the brain dumping and the lack of training. I believe the TLR is much more convenient provided you know how to use it.

The fact that training was done in October and then it was never mentioned again up until a few days ago also plays a large part.

1) Training for this was done back in October.
2) Dispatchers have been putting incorrect or incomplete information.
2) It is more complicated than TLR on the 70/90.
