Call Crew Planning, but do not bet on it.

I think it is on the same timetable as the new terminal in JFK.

Friend of mine is starting 73N training in September. I remember reading about some study guide on APC (Fig's?). Where is that download located?

Just noticed that I have CQ in late July......joy oh joy........

How can I tell if it's in ATL or MSP? Or, do I just call training?

Time to star obsessing about the oral, just like every year

Hey Ferd, me too! July 28-30. If you're in ATL, lets hook up for a beer.

Another not-so-obvious strategy is to do the "Before Start" PM flow after the doors are closed. I wouldn't know anything about this one either as I'm always on-time.
Thats what all your regional brothers and sisters have been doing for years...at least since they wised up and hooked it to the brake . No idiots here. It only takes me a second to release and then finish any last minute duties for a safe push and I'm making a few peanuts in the process.

In fact our beacon isn't hooked up just the 2 boarding doors (not service doors or cargo) and the brake.

And, apparently, no men of integrity either.
