No reflection on you, FTB - I realize you didn't direct the movie - but that looks really cheesy and fake. In the world of CGI, it seems they should be able to do better than that. Granted, I've never been to space, but if/when I do, I don't think it would look like that when the shuttle disintegrates into pieces.

The 3 year window, in addition to the cure period, is basically useless if you ask me. March 2015 bumps up to openers for contract 2016 which undoubtedly be hung over our heads.
Another free advertisement for not-ALPA. Well, not free since you paid for it.

Well notice it's in space, loses it's wing, and goes tumbling out of control. It needed that wing dammit.

It totally looks like him.

The sad part is that really looks like the ATL domestic crew room including the glass room in the back with the oddballs looking out. The computers have been updated as of a year ago but the dot matrix printers are stil... oh wait, we just replaced those. Yeah we've now made it up to 1989!

BTW, I see me in the back. Typing on the computer looking to see if anyone else is on APCF... yeah, I don't do APCF in the front row man, I'm in the back.

We are being prepared by management's Pilot Arm (ALPA) to accept their non-compliance with our contract. ALPA considered politely asking them to comply, but realized they might be read out of the Circle of Trust. It's just so fun learning those company secrets protectd by NDAs, they can't give it up. So, we won't ruffle any feathers, let them do what they need to to maximize profits, and we'll get em next time.

I knew girls like DALPA in college, I'd talk to them and they didn't even recognize I existed. As soon as I opened my mouth they said "no".

how many RAW score points is recurrent worth nowadays?



well, not that it matters. I'm in Bucket 4 but 0 SCs so I'll owe some SCs. ALV+ here I come even with recurrent.
