To be fair, your “oceanic” comment was at the end of a bit of rambling as well.

and you’re welcome (also serious)

by the way, next gen aircraft like 787/350 the CPDLC clearances like altitudes, frequencies, reroutes etc can now be unlinked directly to FMS/FCU/Radio. It’s either very cool, or the next step towards autonomous airliners!

Well if it’s designed by MAX engineer it may not stay in the air...and if it isn’t—it’s a computer, it will have a glitch.

You will quickly figure SLOP out once you get in some 747 wake. LOL. Keep the greasy side down bud.

Gallup Assessment

I completed the on-line application a few days ago. I logged in today and noticed under STATUS it states, "Pending Completion of Gallup Assessment".

What exactly is the Gallup Assessment?

Thanks

It’s a physical fitness test. You have to gallup for twenty minutes at a medium pace. If you even hint that you’re shifting into a skip or even a saunter, you’re out.

check your email for an invite (spam filter too) to take the Gallup. It’s a personality test. Be yourself, be consistent, don’t think too much about it

An Adam Sandler song I haven't thought of for years is suddenly bouncing around my head at a medium pace

Yup! Calling my shot!
