Nu
Maybe I can still get FTB to think about this...

WHY would 1+3 be up, and 2 back, in a slow descent, rather than have all 3 set evenly?

(shhhh, don't tell him, let's see if he can figure it out).

Well, I got to unexpectedly meet EB the other night. His wife was on our flight, and he was picking her up. He was friendly, even offered to give us a lift to our hotel when he saw us waiting for our van (which we politely declined). And he didn't say bub about my orange lanyard.

What kind of car? I bet it wasn't RAs 2002 ford he gave away (or was it a toyota.) That could have been the ride of a lifetime, you missed your chance. The awkwardness would have been worth it to see what he comes up with to fill the conversation void.

He also mentioned that training failures are rare, but do happen. At least 2 haven't made it through sims in this hiring wave.
Heard one took a call during IOE in the cockpit AND had already almost lost it in training for taking calls in the sim.

You're right, should have taken him up on it! Would've had a much better story. Didn't see his car, he was dragging bags to the garage and happened to pass us.

Raisin buttons are a clear violation of the uniform policy. Just trying to steer us back on topic.
