I rode in the cockpit jumpseat tonight with DogWhisperer. I feel like I got to pick the brain of Picasso.
He touched my leg. Twice. I guess that happens when sitting in the jumpseat of an MD-90. The crotchal region of the jumpseater is far too close to the entrance of that trashbag.

80-"My DogWhisperer...what big hands you have....!"
DW-"The better to rub you with, my dear....!"
After all, it was Valentine's Day, you were in a Mighty Dog cockpit, and you fly an Airbus...what else needs to be said?

It makes perfect sense. It saves the company lots of money. The only course at 9 months on a category change is the ER to 400. That had to be negotiated as part of a package of changes. We may get a chance to push the company on the issue when they want something else but for the moment they won't budge. Your talking about a fleet of 88 aircraft in a category that is going to turn over every FO position every 2 years. If the freeze were reduced it would turn over much faster with the retirements coming. The ER to 400 freeze being 9 months has very little impact on the company and they both use the same training program with a small added footprint for the 400. The 2 year freeze for the 717 will have a large impact in cost savings for the company and in the end its all about the money.

(i.e. No eye contact/verbal discussion for two minutes following inadvertant physical contact with another male)

I abide by no eye contact for at least 15 seconds and yelling out something manly. DW has similar rules. Very classy!
