Re: Who Wants to Fly WJ
I don't care on a 1 or 2 hour flight. But if this is a redeye or something 4 plus hours even a slight recline makes a huge difference in the quality of sleep.

Re: Flight Attendant strike vote opens on July 28th
Did the news source webpage make you watch a thirty second advertisement before the news article written could be read?
Or was the article just poorly written and the journalbot gave you a freebie this day? Any wonder why people avoid the media and tune into podcasts instead?

Re: Steinbach midair
Even with a tower open still a risk. I have seen students in a circuit while an airline is inbound and disturbs the pattern where you have 3 of 4 planes get extended downwinds. If the tower tells a student their number in line and allow them to plan their own base turn rather than call it. could be ...

Re: WJ ordered to pay fired accountant for refusing COVID vaccination.
A BS ruling. Airline should make accommodation to anyone who wants to work from home. Why can they selectively mandate to some and not other groups of employees. We all started with jobs that are in an “office”, and then because it’s easy to accommodate some, and not others, we can selectively manda...

3.6 seconds is not a lot of time to recognize things going wrong. Except for the fact you are in the landing phase and at your highest alertness. You should be anticipating deviations and ready to correct for them. It’s like going through a traffic light, each one could turn yellow and red, and you ...

PF chopped the thrust at 150 ft with an increasing performance wind shift. Then forgot to fly the thing the rest of the way down. Didn’t add any thrust, didn’t flare. PM didn’t recognize this, both seem to ignore the sink rate EGPWS alert. Hit the runway at 1000+ ft a min decent rate.

But at the same time we are so busy you can't find anyone to work? I guess our economy is firing on a cylinders and we really can't find ...
