I know that you were just joking but if you genuinely want an answer to your question you should look at your paycheck. I'm not joking, just being honest.

I'm amazed ... 13 posts on this thread and already it's gone so far off the original topic I actually had to look back at the top to remember what it was about ... welcome to APC...

Great job to the crew!!!

On the topic, personally know the CA and he couldn't have handled the situation any better. Sounds like it was a burnt up pack that created the smoke.

It's not just the pay that is pathetic... more pathetic than the pay are the work rules.

Mustache Ride, you do realize that Jet Blue just signed their new rates for the 190? Nahh of course you did not.

Yes, & their previous STILL paid MORE then RAHs current rates, so that's not really a valid point.

Slightly worse than some, a little better than others. Still, I'd rather be here than at any of the cl65 operators just so I don't have to endure flying that thing during the summer months.

Thank you for pointing that out. We had no idea. I can't believe for the longest everyone here thought they were working for a company that SWA, FEDEX and UPS were jealous of. I commend you for having the ability to explain the O' so obvious, obvious. Clairvoyant some might say.
