It is one thing to complain about schedules, or an MD, or ALPA pr what have you, but complaining about ones retirement position is asinine.

Chances are, this airline probably won't even exist in 2050.

So for crying out loud to anyone and everyone who wants to ***** about 2050- here, have some perspective from a family holding a little girl born today who may not live to see tomorrow:

the little green family

Rant over.

I believe those are known as trogdor burninatus.



In the second METAR, those would be designated as "+TB."

By the way, what's a METAR?

Is that the weather you get when the stupid stone age airport you're flying to doesn't have digital ATIS?

I select NW REQUESTS on the ACARS and then WEATHER and select HOURLY WX. What comes out I believe is a METAR.

I don't know why this "Neil Whalerson" needs me to request the weather from him. I can only assume that's what "NW" means.

Default PCS question

Have anybody noticed whenever you try to swap reserve days off for next month, you get the "date entered not in bid period"? I'm just swapping days off from front end to the back end, and i keep getting this error, and i'm not doing anything creative.
