Do FO's Taxi
hey people
I fly a 705 aircraft and as an fo we don't taxi due to a lock of a tiller. I was always curious if Fo's at WJ (737) or AC (EMB, Boeing or Airbus) have tillers on the right side and taxi. just wondering.

Re: wage roll backs
i just got my 1st to 2nd year raise and an additional 4% on top of that. $49/hr isn't bad for a second year f.o! shitty to see that some companies continue treat their employees like sh%t. long live the union!

Re: sioux lookout
I lived in YXL for 3 years with my wife and we had the best time of our lives there. Sioux is awsome if you like fishing and are of the outdoor type. I would move back tomorrow if I could commute. My land-lord there owns half of sioux so send me a pm for contact info.
