Well.....they're not AC, but they treat you decent. Oh, and pretty much the entire fleet has G-530's, wx radars, stormscopes, working autopilots, and new paint jobs.

'Course maybe when I hit the big time, I'll take my turn at sniping.

"Airbus had the ability to truly red-flag the issue," American spokesman Bruce Hicks said.

It seems Boeing isn't alone in not accepting responsibility as in the 737 rudder hardover problems of the 90's.

If anyone has an american dollar bill, better get rid of it soon!

Please

It's amazing to me just how many lawyer members are on Avcourt er... Avcanada. It's great to discover that many of the pilots on this board are experts in so many fields. With the right threads, we should be able to determine how many doctors, dentists, professors, politicians...ahh forget it. To su...

Surely no one is taking this job seriously. Ridiculous.

A friend of mine is over there right now flying a KA200 and told me that several times a day the sirens go off and they have to take cover. He's had enough after three months.

The pay would have to be better than incredible.

Really, it kinda reminds me about the night landing I did where both of us thought the other guy was flying.

LMAO

The thing with wages is to take care of it early if it's bothering you. Otherwise it festers and an unhappy employee isn't a productive employee. Owners and managers can and tend to forget wages until you bring it up with them. :? At the very least you'll know where you stand and can take appropriat...

Doc is right on. The fun flying, ie flying where I want to, no radios, xponder, electrics, etc is disappearing thanx to the brilliance of TC regs. Flying for a living just does not give the same satisfaction.

Maybe good ol' lefty Svend was on board. He's gotta pay for the ring doesn't he?

The 90 HP PA-11 combination is the best of all the cubs. It will be off the ground faster than a PA-18 with a 150 HP every time. Of course the climb never is as good.

Cat the 0-235 will be very nice. One day I plan to put a 125 HP in my '11. Might have to go experimental. No TC BS.

I'm laughing my ass off...cs&j are you sure you're not a tv evangelist?

It sort of depends on your PIC time, but you'll generally be way farther ahead two years later if you stick to your flying gig.

Two years on a ramp is a huge waste of time in my opinion.

I've had the fortune (or misfortune) to work in a lot of industries, including tarring roofs and the oil patch (with the BS degree as well PJ ), and without a doubt aviation has the most whiners.

Good attitude D-stu. What's the matter with you guys?

John Lear just became my new hero. What a great read.

Now, where is my Martha Stewart Living.

Griffon's got it. Exactly.

Damn! This Cohiba is good. The Flor de Cana pop is even better.

Yeah c'mon, the suspense is killin' me.

That's me in the right seat.... but I found out later I couldn't log the time because nobody noticed my medical had lapsed and now I have to go through another $100k in retraining. And now I'm in violation because I was left seat and didn't check my F/O's medical. Maybe capt. SnJ can give me some a...

ahhh...the days of flying when the only paper that mattered was the shite paper.

I've ran mogas in my C-90 for years without any trouble. This engine was designed for 80/87 so it runs terrible on 100LL. Stuck valves etc. I also use Marvel Mystery.

60+ thats about 45 sleeping and 15 actually driving. Oops did I say that out loud...? sleepy

yycflyguy if you think there are any other kind of pussy where Birch lived you're sadly mistaken. Oh wait, maybe there was one...

I won't miss you Birch...my down marmot sleeping bag will never be the same after you scratched the hell out of it. Although I still laugh at the trailer of pop cans that moe tied to your tail.

R.I.P. Buff Birch
