Okay that does it whip 'em out and let's measure! :rolleyes:

Crazy how you assume I am a male..... :rolleyes:

I actually didn't completely get your point of the other post .... but in my experience from flying charter for 3 years and airline for 3 years ..... each have different difficulties .... and both deserve a significant amount of money .... but the charter flying was by far more demanding of my actual piloting skills

Crazy how you assume the only flying I've ever done is airline. ;)

My post was simply in response to the slam that all we fly are coupled ILS approaches in Class B airspace. Anyone who makes a statement like that is simply ignorant. I wasn't trying to start a debate on airline vs. charter and which is more difficult.

Well, I volunteer and participate in ALPA... but I have only been around a couple of years. My generation of newhires and those after me are inheriting the momentum built up over decades, and for some reason the folks in power just won't respond to the rapidly changing environment. Why why why? It seems we get a small foothold and SLIP its gone again. And, I don't think that the fact that there are newhires is the problem. I keep bringing it up, but look at the longshoremen. They get paid bank and there are plenty of folks who would like to do their jobs... ***?

I take out the trash, help the FA clean up in the back, and order LAV when it's stinky... I AM a garbage man and a sewage inspector. I want my 65K dagnabbit.

Did you need me to keep going?

Don't forget KXNA.

Unfortunately, that really is all we do...most of the time. Captain flipped-out again today that I wouldn't use the FD :rolleyes:

You know you're gonna crash doing that don't you? I mean, planes fall out of the sky all the time on vis approaches when the FD gets turned off. Heck, we're skating on thin ice as it is without a HUD in these dang things.
