Looks like the A lines for MAR are out via the back door.

Standing by for regularily scheduled back door double entendre jokes....

Front door is open now too - though you can still use the back door if that's your thing

Maybe they should be blaming the 744 Captains for not retiring at 60, if that's what he means by "widebody"? I mean, 61% of them are past 60 and still hanging on...

Maybe FTB is stuck in the snow, not snookered on Torpedo and can gin up a cool graphic showing where the over 60 folks are sitting?
I can do this. After the kids go to bed but remember there are junior over 60 folks too. So I guess I could grab top 1/2 of seniority and graph those. Probably needs to be bar charts and separated by base or it'd be too huge. Or I guess I could do aircraft.

Thanks for the head's up DH.

After looking at my award, I think I'm the one who got backdoor'd!

I'm sitting on 67 hours and with 30 trips in open time, but not a one of them can I pick up!

And it's not just me, most of the guys around me are in the same fix, with 65-68hrs lines, and we are at the midpoint of line holders. The shortest trip in the pot is about 30 hours, all the way up to a couple 62 hr. trips, but we can't pick any of them up, due to the 72:30 ALV+15 cap = 87:30, but with the shortest trip being 30, well, you'd have to be at 57:30 or less to white slip it.

Maybe I can white slip a MD88 3 day worth about 15, and get some landings??

Or put in a greenslip and pray for snow?

Bring back the Bow Wave!
