Congratulations on keeping the dumbest thread EVER alive and well. Do we need this schlock? Who cares? :bear: :bear: Thank you, I knew you would get a kick out of that. You were not required to continue reading the thread though. Carry on. :lol: That was aimed at everybody...not you! :bear: :bear:

Ever seen the rat funnels they put on mooring/dock lines? Best turn then around to keep the rats ON this ship!
COD for fuel is the beginning of the end......usually.

Azimuth, call it what you want. A spade a is a spade.

As usual, the parasites run the show!

If they do survive, it should be WITHOUT ANY tax payer money. Tax payers have been keeping shit shows like this afloat for years, due mainly to political pressure brought on by the people who happen to own the business! Let them sink or swim on their own. They made their bed....sleep in it! Perhaps ...

I've had couple holds behind Jazz or waiting to t-o in non controled areas because they wouldn't cancel on marginal vfr days D-8 probably approaches 130 kts 10 nm finals... But I guess when you have that many pilots it's SOPs all the way down. Yes, I think it SOP not to cancel. Air Canada never can...

So then, every leg they fly, they do so as medevac status? Calling a big BS on that one. More like avoiding nav canada fees ?

That's how I'd fly it. These guys missed the memo.

Why the use of the word "medevac" on each and every transmission. I've flown a few in my time, and the "medevac" is required only on initial contact.....and then ONLY if you are actually medevac status. I suspect you are not, at least half the time.

Thanks grey wolf. My thoughts on flying a single....why be at 100 knots ten miles out? It turns a reasonable glider into a piano. As for airmanship.....well, I've given up expecting any.

Okay, I'm curious. Don't mean to come off as rude here, but. We followed one of your PC12's into YXL yesterday. You had a 19 mile lead on us and we still had to "slow to minimum safe speed..." To follow you. Question: At what speed do you fly an approach? Not to be rude, but we were 19 miles behind ...

Selfish or stupid, I'll let you decide...

Nope. You signed up for that....i didn't/wouldn't.

Blind adherence to orders. Patriotic, or stupid. You be the judge.

How depressing. We spend the first 500 (or so) hours of a students career, having them fly fixed gear aircraft, and we teach them in that first 500 hours to NOT lower the gear. What do they do, when they get in an RG aircraft? What we taught them to do - NOT lower the gear. Learning factor of Prima...

Do pilots REALLY need a check list to put the gear down? There are two items to be completed on every landing. Flaps set and gear down. When you leave the house every morning, do you need a check list to remember your pants? Shakes head. Let the excuses begin. Really?

Well, since a 737 CANT DUMP FUEL, it's not even an incident, now is it?? It's a crock.
It should be posted under "Crocks and Rumours".

Should probably delete the thread rather than scare the crap out of everybody?

A stall is a stall is a stall. Send them up in a bloody Citabria!

Air France pilots, pick up the white courtesy phone.....

PILOT LICENCES SHOULD NEVER EXPIRE Even the old ugly paper licences never rally expired. They were replaced as needed? As usual, stupidity reigns supreme, as something SO simple is made almost impossible by TC. I guess a credit card sized, PERMANENT licence would result in lay offs? Say nothing of t...

Mine expires March 1. The paperwork has been sent in. If I can't get a temp licence I'll just grab a cheap flight to Mexico and work on my tan till they get around to sending a renewal.

The grapes have been sitting too long in the sun again. It is, what it is. Get on with your lives. Who cares. Now run along and line up for all those 20000$ a year right seat jobs. Don't forget to sign up for all the bonds and payroll deductions. Welcome to the race to the bottom. :bear: :bear:

Nope. All previously logged time will count.
On a brighter note, time logged on the ramp will now count as 50% towards your forklift drivers ticket and ATPL.

Historically, pilots have not been held financially responsible for their mistakes. However, smart money is on that changing. There have been examples. I won't site examples, but it would be a great idea for pilots to look into liability insurance, of some sort. At least enough to cover deductible i...

They're corporate. Why would they need to be under somebody else's OC?
