Do you get Ambien? I'm used to flying at 0600 one day, then rolling with NVGs and a 2200 takeoff the next, to slide to a 1200 takeoff after 12 hours of crew rest, all with the help of Ambien.

We need pairings that allow adequate sleep on a normal schedule. Not Ambien.

I've got 47 more days of flying "missions".

Figure that!
On the other hand, some of the best CAs I've flown with are ex military pilots.
And then you have the ones that ACT like they were on the military, trying to fly a mission from FLL to TPA and they learned everything watching Chuck Norris and jimmy Stewart.

I met him once, a lot shorter than I thought he'd be, but still taller than Tom Cruise.

Flying skills? Would you have expected any lesser from Walker?
He needs no clearance, no logbook, no FO, and no paychk, all goes to charity.

On another note, has anyone else experienced problems with Flica? epecifically:
Any of the menus that would show your current monthly schedule, on the left hand side, when you click to look at a paring, it takes WAY too long to upload, but not the open time parings.
??
Thanks

Yep....I just keep an electronic bid packet....much easier, and quicker, to just open the packet and look at the pairing

ATC doesn't terminate Chuck's radar service, Chuck terminates theirs.
