Did anyone find a headset on 643NK? I've called around the bases and checked the aircraft. It seems to have vanished into thin air. I hope that whoever removed it has simply been too busy to turn it in.

Occ director leaving after just a year and a half. I wonder if he couldn't do the job or he saw a systemic problem that prevented him from do his job?

Does the new FLL base chief come with no prior 121 experience? Email mentions charter only.

Who needs prior 121? Isn't being a OCC "volunteer" enough?

Please tell me this is a joke?

It's bad enough our CP is so young and inexperienced. This place is becoming more like a regional daily.

I'm on hold with USAA, they have the same hold call music as Scheduling!!

Reflexively, I almost gave the USAA Rep my employee number.

They tried to a couple of years ago, but the local FSDO inspector (back when our POI was in DTW) argued that we needed them in case we needed to walk from the airplane to ops on the ramp. He wanted them to have a SIDA badge. That is why the pilots had them but not the FA's.

He's been a pilot for NK and an ALPA volunteer for a while. I'm glad he's been selected over another direct-entry Captain from the regionals.

It's the single most popular "hold" music in the world, and the composer had no idea. He was 16 when he wrote it over 20 years ago.

Fascinating story, actually!

What kind was it? A buddy of mine found one but hadn't turned it in yet. He hasn't worked in a few days and there was no one to turn it in to.
