Was it in its own area or right in the middle of the congregating area?

Lol. Where's the odometer again?

Yeah I guess Jiffy Lube forgot to put that little sticker on the windshield.

Gonyon, I might be acting a prude but not sure that's great to be putting here. See thread "The Media Reads APC." We could also add "Litigious Attorneys Read APC."

I disagree. Considering the huge shít sandwich Mr. Williams served himself and is currently munching on, he's fair game for some good-natured ribbing.

Also, a coke.

(Man might get thirsty; it's a big sandwich he shat himself.)

Hahahaha!!

Don't forget this gem:

“This aircraft was allowed to go into failure at an altitude on a commercial flight with 150 people on board, and that shouldn’t happen,”

As soon as you walked in. So everyone that comes and goes walks right through the area.

I will say, Im not 100% sure if it was approved or what but a lot of guys did CBTs there, so?, Im not sure

Like I said before, if this is the case, ALPA should jump on it with both feet. Have a little chat with the POI, ASAPs, Press Release, etc. I don't think they have the stones to pull that off, nor the negotiating prowess to fix this without a push from the membership.

The least credible source period. Maybe it's for FA in-flight training but I doubt a flight attendant is in the know about the company's plan for our cbt.
