How about the automated “retard” callout, the “trans level” on approach charts, or the “MAN FLEX” on the Bus FMA! We can do this all day.

This stuff just writes itself and we get a laugh. I saw a YouTube clip the other day that made me spit my coffee. A guy dressed like a redneck was asking why people are offended by a man pretending to be a woman marketing water pretending to be beer. It still boggles my mind that people actually think that it is serious and get paid to create another crisis for them to solve. Oh well, just keep quiet at work, and laugh at what we think is funny at home.

I'm curious about the 737/Airbus differences out of ORD as well since it's not a coastal base.

How long is it to get ORD as a new hire on the 320 vs the 737?

Anybody know if there are plans to bring the 320 to the Orlando base?

Ok. Let's say this for the 100th time. The company has not stated any plans beyond the current 737 for MCO and LAS.

Will there be other fleets in the future? maybe. But....nobody can do anything but speculate.

I like the bus.

Compared to the CRJ the schedule is awesome. Compared to my buddies on the 717, my schedule is garbage.
