WD...Not sure his angle, but it appears as this poster has a history of utilizing this forum for antagonistic entertainment vs relevant content/exchange on the subject at hand. Caveat Emptor.

A man should not feed a troll.

Default Thanks!

Robthree -

I very much appreciate the info. I'd be a commuter, and the family needs me around almost as much as they need to eat. I've got a pretty good gig right now, so I think Ill stay put to build time and hope a Legacy calls.

I wish you guys the best of luck in negotiations. It sounds like the one bright spot in your Southern Hostage Situation is that you have a good pilot group. I would have liked to have spent some deck time with you guys!

If he's one of those guys who just comes here just to toss ca-ca, well...he certainly wouldn't be the first. Given the substandard pay and QOL all DHL contractors face, and the near-impossibility of getting them corrected in the near future, I don't know why anybody would want to add to his fellow airman's misery, but some do.

Thanks for the heads-up.

Nom de plume of John & Martha from the videos. Pretty obvious really.

Alternative analysis…
Fegelein (little sweeper) is an internet forum user name posting from the United States. Except for the indiscriminate use of insults, baiting statements and the occasional slur, the body of content therein has proven, to date, unremarkable. Claims Fegelein attended an all-boys academy where he was ostensibly expelled for top shelving toilet tanks are unsubstantiated. Likewise, accounts of participation in taboo dorm room experimenting behavior cannot be confirmed. Selection of a 3rd Reich persona is consistent with a fixation on uniform policy enforcement however. It is also likely Fegelein, as is frequently the case with compulsive online disrupters, does not seek to advance any specific agenda. He covets, rather, creating a sense of outrage or disgust in the anonymous environment from which he then derives excitement and pleasure; always short lived. Contrary to opinion expressed in several posts, it is more probable than not Fegelein maintains a typical residence, spouse and children a distinct possibility. His mother’s basement, if it ever existed, survives solely in the imagination of various audience regulars. The paradox of vehement, hyper-sensitive reaction to Fegelein’s provocations represents the singular value in the dialog described above.

Hello guys I had a question about logging time flying the 777. How do you guys do it? are you able to log the whole flight time even when you are resting or only the time you are in seat? Also how does the flying get assigned for the FO's? I'm assuming its 1 captain & 3 FO. Do the FO's have to go back to sim a lot for the 3 bounces every 90 days or is there enough rotation between flying pilot & cruise pilot to avoid that? Thanks guys!

Yeah, you log all the time. Some foreign carriers only credit some of your P3(IRO) time, if you're looking for a gig in the sand box, but you're a required crewmember from block out to block in. Crew scheduling usually rotates the flying amongst the FOs, but if someone needs a landing, or wants a certain leg you can arrange to switch things up. Rarely will someone have to go back to the sim for landings, but it happens from time to time.

Looks like out resident Troll had all his posts removed from the thread. Four pages worth is a lot of Trolling.
Just mentioning it to explain to anyone who wanders in here by mistake why there are gaps in the thread and why next four pages are not accessible.

I was hoping maybe he did us all a favor and got himself hit by a bus, but then I thought, "man, poor poor bus!"
