Waiting to attempt to deice in IAD

While we were deicing, the precip turned to freezing rain with ice pellets. We're not allowed to operate in that when its below 0*C, so we took our ball and went home. This was only about 45 mins after deicing with 100% type 4.

We were given a reduced rest overnight in domicile. Hotel van wasn't running, so we got to wait almost an hour for a cab. Finally getting to the hotel at about 3am.

Good times.

One of my really good friends work for you guys and is based of IAD as well.
 
I really can't comprehend how cold that is... We hit 0F fairly often where I am. But my god.
If you fly a piston, how do manage to get that thing started?

Where do you think the saying "wing and a prayer" came from?

That, and we preheat with a 120,000BTU heater for an hour before departure. -45 is roughly our cutoff point. Roughly. The turbines go a little colder.
 
@Armando you can fool peoples down here in Brazil: you can put fake hours in your logbook, lie about your experience, pay to get ICAO level 4 just about anything with the "Jeitinho brasileiro" but please DON`T TRY TO DO THIS WITH AMERICANS!

btw I`m sure you fly for gol, at the end all you need here to get a job like that is to know the right person, have some extra hand written hours in your log and a good amount of high quality paulistinha time..

ohh one more thing where is that nice beach in Sao Paulo? last time I have been there I only saw a dirty river.....(btw I do actually like the city a lot). Lately there was not really any beach weather, lets say that picture was done in Ubatuba, for the last 2 weeks the weather over there was a big NO to VFR flying....I don`t see any of those butts here in Rio unless it`s sky clear...
 
Lets see, 310, the fule tank adjacent to it, the white picket fence :P

Is there a Pakistani Chick in your class? She wears glasses and is freakin rich.
 
I never .. NEVER say anything false hours, never spoke of buying the second note of the ICAO that there exists even people here in bad faith, but they are few and are always discovered. Second, I said that I live in sao paulo, I never said that my mother lives on the beaches in sao paulo so do not know why I took these findings, this picture took a lot of hammer time ago and posted on other forums, put it in my blogs orkut and facebook, if someone used it on the Internet that my fault? Here two pictures taken Friday now
draw their conclusions
( take by my cellphone nokia)
