Might want to figure it out. Bidding opens in just under 3 weeks. :D

@mshunter You're at Envoy these days?

@mshunter As someone who literally had to learn DECS entries on the fly, I highly recommend anything that creates an interface between you and DECS. If you have access to Mobile CCI, it takes away needing to remember DECS entries. I think if needed, MobileFOS also allows you to save your...

@mshunter DECS?

That is the one major thing I try to impress on FOs that are new to the type. There is more than one way of making the jet do what you want it to do. I really don't care what vertical mode you personally use, just as long as we make crossing restrictions, are stable on approach, etc...

Yet, this is the second -88 that has gone off roading in as many years.

What about in the sim for a Flaps 0 landing :D The only time I use FPA is on the Mount Vernon Visual in DCA.

Happy April Fool's Day!! yeah... no...

Too much work...

ERJ: spin altitude, verify in the box, arm VNAV, sit back and watch the magic.

180 to the marker is the norm in busy terminal environments. It's no problem in this airplane to be Gear Down and Flaps 3 crossing the FAF. The suggestion of 250/10000 at 30 nm a great rule of thumb. Using the FIX INFO page to either identify a fix close enough or create a PBD works great for...

For me, it all comes down to cost. I've done multiple months of airport food and multiple months of bringing my own food. The difference was an eye opener. I basically paid for my crashpad with the money I was saving my bringing my own food. I've now gotten to where I do a combination of...

Funny how that works :D

What @learhawkerbe400 said comes straight from our training department on the 190. They prefer us to be within 10 knots of green dot before extending flaps rather than right at vFE. 210 with Flaps 1 does very well in the transition, but slam dunked close in... 180, Gear Down, Flaps 3 makes it...

Going for Fourth!! Of all the milestones this company has met during the merger, the rollout of the new uniform was atrocious!

Turn the Flight Director OFF when the AP is disconnected while in FLCH?? Must be operator specific guidance because we don't have that. How about just using any other vertical mode and TCS?

Here we go...

I flew that bird on IOE as well...

I'll have to dig up a picture, but for me, it was a 1972 'E' Model Piper Aztec. Of all the different tail numbers I have flown, this particular airplane is still is in my Top 3 favorites.

DECS is about as bullet proof as they come these days. A lot of stuff didn't make sense on the LUS side until the SFP cutover, but for a system that is 50+ years old, it is impressive.

It's not only the dispatchers using DECS... :D

Yeah... LIDO is waaaay to modern for AA.

American does use Sabre... If I'm not mistaken, American developed and then sold off Sabre.

FedEx is 24 hours out. Seat is pretty much yours unless you get bumped by a Check Airman or Deadhead which I understand is rare.

I think they meant 1000 SIC...

You'll probably be surprised at how much being a 135 guy will actually help. I found my first 121 training was simply building on the foundation that had been build flying 135. I wouldn't get too worried about falling behind. You should get some sort of training syllabus that should detail...

I thought that was @DPApilot ??

:(

I thought it was the treadmill... :D

According to a friend of mine, real airplanes have radial engines and tailwheels.

How much is Delta's insurance going to increase with these super junior captains?

Ours is similar. 12 months or 400 credit hours (sequences flown) and a Continuing Qualification/ event. However, a probationary pilot can not bid for a Captain vacancy. Because of that, we'll never see upgrades lower than 9 months.

How long is the probationary period at Delta?

Yep! I'm still trying to figure out how PSA made it into the same sentence as Freedom and GoJet...

Looks more like a Lufthansa A340 and a United 777 to me! :D

Typical 3M. Everyone else is canceling and running for the hills, but they are business as usual. :D

CASS is not international. Can't be verified to be up there unless you are on your own metal.

PBS: Poops Being Scheduled?? :D

It's not a banana, it's a flying taxi cab! :D

This one... (not my pic)
