No retirement plan. I'd expect them to be around at least 10 more years.

We do have an updated emergency checklist, though:

I'm not perfect. I got one B for skipping class too much. I skipped class to fly charters in the King Air. I'm good at math. I suck at English. Oh well. At least I'm happy and don't pick on commuting pilots. If your digging up old posts try to find everything regarding "commuting is a choice".

I'm going to the lake tomorrow. I have four seats left on the boat and more beer than I can drink. Who's in? Bbhnpd can come as long as he brings underboob boat girls.

I'm in!

Ok now, what lake, where?

I need to finish a QRH checklist with "GAME OVER."

I still like Escape from Madagascar

"Sir, I think we're out of fuel."

"How do you know?"

"Well, engine 2 just quit... and [in best Private Eye voice] engine 1 is no longer on fire."

Man, it's just high and dry season right now...
no Oct bidpacks out yet via backdoor
no AE "at the end of Aug or beginning of Sep" out yet
no new aircraft order announcements
no new 717s delivered
no trips in open time to think about at all
no topics being discussed except DPA vs. ALPA or some orange football team

no good APC fix, man...

What do folks think the chances are for hurricanes in the WATRs during Sep? Will I regret my island hopping sched this month?

R.E. the hurricanes; avoid flying on Sept. 10+11, that is the peak of hurricane season.

But...if you're going to get stuck somewhere for a few days due to a storm, make sure it's in St. Maarten!

Mechanic told me he has been hearing of some sort of announcement occurring tomorrow. I asked him if he thought it had to do with a/c orders, he told me he thinks it is about mx early outs.
