Well heard a rumor today that there were used 777's in play being considered from a struggling Japanese carrier. Also the source said that there was some buzz about the dreamliners we had on order, but no specifics. The source is a solid guy but he said he got it from a friend on the line.

If one is NQ and then goes and gets qualified in an initial for a new aircraft, when can they bid for a line?

Before the LOFT at the end of sim training or after?

Thanks

Damn you Tsquare. Damn you.

I pull up this website and my wife and her friend walk beside me... what are you looking at?

The Delta pilot... forum... thing. Really? Yes. Is that what they post there. Yes? they do.

Now, you, Mr. F/O, go find some moderate, I'm going to the back to save the Ta-Ta's!

I can hear the cargo managements collectively cringing at the conversation on our tired they were and how there is not one level of safety. While that duty period itself would have been legal per 117, their rotation was not.
