Doctors prescribe shit all the time. That doesn't mean we actually take them. How do they prove what medications are in your body?

Re: GS5 in Legal Trouble?

This kind of fraud drives me nuts as a taxpayer. I bet I work over 30 days a year just to fund the cost of people defrauding the government.

Re: Emirates after AC

Is anyone considering the Trump Gold Card? It's $1 million. You should be able to make that back fairly easily at a US major. I don't have the cash but I wonder if you could secure a loan with a strong chance at securing a high paying job.

What is their current financial situation? The stock price chart looks like it's bleeding out. Could a prolonged strike put the airline out of business?

The person responsible for an aircraft in-flight is the Pilot in Command. I don't even need multiple choice to know that anymore.

Re: Bad training experience has made me question finishing

At my first commercial pilot job I'd estimate 10-20% of new FOs were asked to leave due to their lack of piloting skill. This is after working the ramp for a year while waiting for the spot and not flying.
