You know, I would really like to have an OPEN discussion about the whole etops alternate business - with the dispatchers and real bookworms. The problem is, this forum really isn't the place to do that.
Maybe, in one of our quarterly cq's there could be something other than the pure plain vanilla sterile scenario.
I DO realize there are scenarios for which there are no solution.
Cut to UPT standup:
Ferd: ok, new jet new day
Scambo: Is there a clearing line?
Ferd: Yes
Scambo: Okay, I'd enter the overhead and land
Ferd: Scambo you're an ace (smiley)
