Re: AC New hires please use your WB bid

I'm on the fence with the socialized bidding/status pay......While I agree its fawkin bull that the old farts get to be off from Dec15-Jan5 and work 4 days a month from Jun-Sept. I also like being able to bid a position and be SR. Even though its not the exact position I would pick in a perfect worl...

Re: Career First Officer at AC by design?

What's with the gloating? Isn't the 777 FO position known as the 'trouble maker' position? Guys who failed their upgrade, too scared to do it, or just don't fit in anywhere else in the company?

Re: Should I find a new instructor, or is this a normal first few lessons?

3 flights and no take off or landing attempts??

I took off and landed on my first intro flight, flying should be conducted mostly by you, unless he is demonstrating or telling you something.

pull the handles, he sounds like knob.

Re: New pot legislatiion brings on talk of pilot pee in a cup

anyone who's a non smoker tried a we lil dip or a puff. Head rush and impaired for bit. Nope. Never tried it, don't have the urge. And that's one of the problems: weed, alcohol, tobacco are way too often viewed through rose colored "i am cool" glasses, often by people who can't resist the urge. If ...

Who ever comes up with it first is rich!!

Re: New pot legislatiion brings on talk of pilot pee in a cup

I've never been a regular smoker, something about not knowing who has dealt with the substance prior to me has always made me a little paranoid.

Re: New pot legislatiion brings on talk of pilot pee in a cup

I hope it becomes like Alcohol, smoke em if you got em while on days off. I laugh how some of these old skips are dead set against it, yet are totally fine with drinking 3-4 scotch every night... :roll: :roll:
