Ok, it made it sound like he was hired from outside. Or at least the way I read it. No clue he was already here.

He paid for my new-hire ALPA dinner.

Seemed like a good guy.

Interesting. Hmmm... Where is he heading?

You probably been here long enough to not get preoccupied with spirit mgmt revolving door. Just saying this for your "hmm"comment implying "what does he know?, if not this, disregard my comment.

If your buddy found a Telex 850 on 637NK, let me now.

I don't see why we need a practice oral when the oral exam guide in its entirety is on Comply365, so we can "practice" all the time. One trick I learned from my very first airline was to take a few minutes on every trip (during an overnight, maybe) and review some limitations and memory items. That way I don't have to cram for the PC. YMMV.

Council 18 pilots

Voting for representatives opens today. Choose wisely. The candidate who re-declared his candidacy this morning did so in a rambling, classic ad hominem attack that clearly shows his true colors. Preaching unity while degrading others. He a stooge of Ackerman and will continue to spread his rogue way of thinking into council 18.

This is the same tired playbook our MEC Chairman keeps calling plays from. Don't think for a second how much control he had in the message and how their personal relationship plays into this. If you want another stooge of Ackerman in office, by all means....
