PIREP request:
Supposed to return to ATL from re-route tomorrow (wed 11 Jan) in the am.
Any predictions on road conditions. Curious about employee busses and I-85 heading south.
Can someone leave me a gallon of type IV fluid in the lounge so I can de-ice my truck?
Anyone been driving in this mess?
Thanks in advance. Cheers,

Good luck. They have no idea how to clear roads down here.

Quick question for you reserve pros- guy next to me in the crew room gets a call out on short call to do an off-line deadhead to position himself to fly a one legger to ATL tomorrow and then deadhead back to base. Leg to ATL shows cancelled now. Does he get any credit for the trip since he'd already checked in and acknowledged it? Does his RAW score increase? Or does he simply go back on short or long call since he's no longer going anywhere?

If you're already checked in you just get suitup pay.... and that's it. Raw score increases to reflect suitup credit. You go back to long call.
The suitup pay thing NEEDS to be fixed.

Called the MARTA info line. The buses are not running but the rail service is, but with long delays and unscheduled interruptions.
I do not feel like sitting around on a rail platform waiting for a train that may not show up. We have been on hold for 2 hours with crew tracking.

Hey anyone know the best place to get 3oz Deet with heavy concentration. The places I've check only had large quantities or nothing at all. This is for personal travel and trying to carry bags on.
Thanks
Thanks

Crew tracking is not even contactable. You'll get a busy signal... Your only point of talking to a live person is probably crew sked, only about 15 min wait or so...

I found a magic marker sized 99% DEET spray thing at Wal-Mart prior to my latest MAO excursion. It's located in the outdoors section.... pretty easy to find.
That stuff is pretty greasy, but I didn't see a single skeeter anywhere near me that entire trip.
