FNGs, welcome! Please wear your pin on your tie. We have a LOT of work to do.
Plus, that half wing really ties the room together.
Yep...half wing on your tie could mean FREE beers!

Not true on my Bus in IAH.

Especially if you just spent Super Bowl Sunday night with me at the MSY Airport Hilton.

Shame that guys aren't doing the right thing with our new guys. Real chance to get this place going in the right direction, IMO.
Odds are he was probably on JRMAN pay to boot......

A sincere thanks for getting the half-winger's tab
As an FO I pick up the tab for half wingers when I run into them because hopefully it will make up for the bad apples in the group.

I saw a Captain last week with a set of half wings on. I had to ask the question...he said he just liked free beer.

I would have had to check the SCAB list right in front of him......
If he wasn't on it - "Surprised your name isn't here."
