Everyone settles up at tax time in April.

Good article. I did not know about the 25% convention for bonus withholding. I wonder how Compass will handle it.

Leather Jacket wings

Already searched to no avail. Question is for those who are wearing the leather jacket: The wings that I received have pins that are spaced about a 1/4" too narrow to fit the M&H eyelets properly. Is there a different set of wings for our jacket? OR, did M&H sell me the wrong jacket. Thanks in advance....

Where do you live and how long have you been with AWAC? If you're closer to one of our bases I can't see why you wouldn't. That said I wouldn't plan on upgrading in less than two years unless we get new flying, which is always possible.

Take the plunge! There have been several new hires getting MSP before IOE. I'm assuming the senior FO's are upgrading and leaving some holes in the line. Shouldn't be too difficult to get MSP as a new hire.

Getting it as a CA, well now, that's different.
