Piedmont news and rumors are so dull that we/you must discuss various switches?

New topic: what does the "terrain inop" caution light mean if illuminated?

There is a light for that? Must be a captain light.

I think it just flashes at random intervals to get your attention to make double sure you put the gear up and the engines aren't running at 102%. Conditions to set the caution light off are..
1) autopilot on
2) Captain sleeping
3) USA Today or magazine out
Proper required memory procedure is simple, and it always works.
1) notice shiny flashing light
2) look at captain to see if he is still alive
3) notice that he is simply sleeping as you were not fortunate enough to move up a seniority #
4) close paper or magazine, and at this point light will extinguish.

I think this it has something to do with the action of the paper closing. Later in flight should the light flash again only step 4) is needed to extinguish the light this time

I've noticed when on the ground that picking my nose and/or putting my cell phone down makes it go out as well.

Does anyone know if the new hotel in CLT accepts the choice privileges rewards card? I noticed that Quality was on there and was just curious if they accept it for pilots.

Yeah everyone is being recalled and there will be a new hire class next month.. using all the sims SEA, ATL ect. everyone currently on furlough will be holding a line by July... maybe sooner if you want to go to the new PHX base to fly the Q400.

Oh, sorry I'm dreaming again. But really I hope we can get everyone back soon.
