I give it 5 weeks before the first one. I always land fast. 73 don't care.

Thanks for sharing. I was literally in tears reading that. My wife thought I was crazy. Good stuff.

Hey, since we're talking corporate jet lavatories or lack thereof, I have to say the corporate jet we flew had a nice lav. But, that came back to haunt us. You see we were hired to fly down to Florida to take some private pilot yahoos up for a demo flight so that they could grade the jet for some magazine that I'm sure is now out of business. Now as fun as it was to have a PC-12 pilot admonish you for dangerously pulling up to 15 degrees or 20 or whatever it was on climb out because that's just not how you do it on a big plane like a PC-12 and as fun as it was to listen to some Cirrus pilot say "wait till you fly a real plane" because we turned the AP ON (his real plane didn't have one), the real fun was having someone drop off a gift in the lav on a 20 minute flight. And not bother to tell us.

So since we didn't figure anyone would have used the bathroom on such a short flight much less take a dump, we didn't dump the lav and flew the jet home. We completely underestimated the proverbial "and a Florida man..."

The plane sat for 2 or maybe 3 weeks in the hangar during the summer. Eventually you walk on to the jet to check something and find out that the blue juice does lose its magic coating after a while and you just quickly walk off and barf.

Correct, no freeze. I am a returning bypass-furlough and was assigned DTW717B (requested it to be senior.) I am bidding SEA and hoping to not wait too long.

That is quite literally the funniest thing I've read in years, elicited a tear or two I might add. Well done old sport.

I still can't believe this is the plan. Welcome back to two plus months in the schoolhouse for your first year.

That's fantastic!

Nice morning laugh to offset my kids desire to forgo the extra hour of sleep.

Technical question. I've got a King Air trip coming up. Did the previous pilot leave the ground high heat swith on? Hoped some of you could examine this cockpit photo and help a guy out.

Looks like we are starting service (via SkyWest, of course) from SEA-SAN and SEA-PDX next summer. Whoa, can't believe I posted that after the last picture.
