F. A. with a bad attitude, I wonder if it's D.(W.)J. ? Pretty nasty marital situation complicated with a man she tried to destroy and it ultimately failed. Now from what I hear, she's about to pay dearly for her miscalculation.

What comes around goes around and the best part, all you have to do is sit back and order the popcorn.

Do middle of the day readys drive anybody else crazy when you have all the old guys in ops that don't know what an inside voice is? It doesn't matter how loud I turn up my volume I still can't hear the movie I am watching.

I know what you are talking about! With that said, if I'm at Comair for as long as some of these guys have been, I wouldn't be too concerned about my "inside voice" either.....

Has anybody else had hydraulic leaks on the 50 lately? Last week I had 3 in 2 days. Two were in cinci so it was no big deal. One was in Laguardia. Maintenance there was just basically blowing it off saying its just seeping because it was cold out. It was dripping pretty good and we had a small puddle under our nose gear. It took about an hour and a half and the 3rd mechanic to finally say it was leaking and he knew where it was coming from and it is common.

I'm bored on my ready.

If you have been around turbine engines as a long as most of the older guys there, you too would talk louder then most since your hearing is no doubt shot.

How many 70/90's do we have? How busy can we get with them?

We can get as busy as they schedule them. We used to fly our 50 seaters 10-13 hours on average per day. Now it's down to 8 hours average per day. We used to have a late bank of departures out of CVG that left at 11 pm and a constant flow of aircraft with no 4 hour sits between flights before the "right-sizing" about a year prior to the bankruptcy. They can fly them as much as Delta schedules for us. We certainly have the capability to do it.
