Getting a FBO to bring you stairs is actually pretty difficult. You're usually left on the ramp forever while they get around to it, and it's been 7 hours since you last saw a bathroom; time to throw out the rope and make it happen...

realized that the last few days I've been logging into the Test version of IOCC..... I would've thought they Netline/CrewLink IOCC link on info.compassairline would've been update to be correct. I guess thats asking too much. Finally in the correct version and my schedule is in there, but the format is truly atrocious.
Am I the only one who can't figure out the showtimes? I'm cross referencing the IOCC schedule with the PBS award, and I don't even see a "time" on there that resembles the correct showtimes.
EDIT: Making more sense of the showtimes and dep/arr times now, but no layover time like Adler said

That's because you're short Adler, a normal sized pilot would not need to do that.

I can't figure out how long the layover is.
Or why I have 12 month during not my awarded 12 month, and again during my awarded 12 month.

Either way the CA got screwed. Though he did operate the escape slide it doesn't look like he actually let people use it...
And if that's the case, does opening the door but not allowing the pax to deplane constitute an opportunity to deplane?
I'm going with nyet.

At least there is some sort of paper trail with that acars message. All the same I do not like this. Not at all. Declaring an emergency when one doesn't exist to get out of a fine is sleazy... Sleazy like threatening to fire people if they report your attempts to launch single engine.
I welcome a federal investigation.
Im not comfortable with this.

You'd do that? I'm not really sure how to respond

I agree with @poser765 . As we all know the PIC is the final responsibility, plus our manual says something to the effect of the pic will not let outside parties place undue pressure to execute normal or emergency authority. Remember to think critically about the situation, and evaluate everything.
Very tough situation and I feel bad for the crew and passengers that dealt with / are dealing with it.

Are you guys really this dense? You weren't there, and don't know all that happened in the three hours prior to blowing the slide. Frankly, I don't know what I would have done in this situation. Blow the slide? Maybe. Probably, not.. Seeing that photo of the Acars with the "OMG u have one minute to blow the slide or doom" well being safe and sound on the ground, what's the rush? I'd need time to evaluate the situation. I would think that in the time prior to blowing the slide they were working out a plan.. And this was the last resort all parties agreed on. I don't know. I wasn't the captain, and neither were you. You all are quick to judge when there could be more to the story.
