Gonna be a funny leg

[derg]

So my first leg is a fairly long one to CVG.

The captain I'm flying with went up to another pilot, starts running the 'preflight brief', where the aircraft is and whatnot.

After about two minutes, he says, "I think you have the wrong one, Doug is two cubicles back".

One of us has to shave and/or dye the 'fro orange!

Play up the guilt trip and you should do well. Free dinner, maybe?

:yar:

It's an IOE so I just want to be released early so I'll have to play it up a little.

The originally scheduled FO's got to ride along the first few legs on an IOE of a pilot who hasn't flown on the company certificate for a period of time or something like that.

What is IOE?

Initial Operating Experience - it is like your mom sitting in the passenger seat while you get your bearings on the family minivan.

that sounds like something Citationkid would say... has anyone seen him/heard from him lately? I have limited access again (darn WEP keys!) but I'm going to try to email/massage him or something...
