back on track, what's this new message regarding a contract that we have to abide by to secure flying?

You mean the one about how we need to do better to get more business? They obviously don't subscribe to lead by example.

they are jumping the gun a bit eh? We want more flying contracts, but wait we are still wholey owned. Maybe they finally will stop the bull shat saying we cant bid on flying for other major airlines since we are owned by AMR. The fact we ground handle all the majors at a crud ton of airports kind of gives that argument away as a lie.

Does the automatic trip trade work when all your sequences are red status?

Yeah, as long as the trip you want, is as they put it "redder"

It's probably a lot rougher ride for the pax in the grass off the end, or EMAS, than that less than gentle touchdown.

I too have flown out of many "less than ideal runways" both in this country as well as many island nations nearby. Never found out what the grass or EMAS was like though. I get paid to do some real-life pilot stuff, but if the CA has a problem with what I'm doing he has every right to take it.

you can trade green for green, red, redder
you can trade red for red, redder
you can trade redder for redder.

use N4TL/SEQ#/Date

SEQ# is the seq you want to trade and the date it starts. The computer will spit out everything you're legal to trade with. No guessing.

just watch out 30min prior to TTOT your seq's may all change colors.
