Life of an Airline Pilot

Sac and back isn't that bad, usually it's always smooth and sunny plus you get a lot of hours out that route. Try RAL and phoenix 10 times back and fourth. Still these routes are better than being stuck in Dallas while all of the Southeast is a convective sigmet.

Exactly. Case in point: ME! Sac and back 6 or 8 times - i forget how many times I went up there now. Anyway, on my last trip up there, dispatch tell me, "uhhh... yea we werent tracking how many times you were going up there. We dont have enough hours to have you x/c out to the east cost for the jetride. They ended up airline'ing me and my flying partner out to jax for the jetride, and we were able to seminole it back to riverside. Turned out ok.

Hey Ken, hows CFI school?

There are no words to describe cfi school. You either got it or you don't. There are those in this class that are very obviously having problems. I personally am taking it all in, one at a time. Lesson plans, endorsements, aerodynamics, Vmc, regs, foi, and then some. Its all a matter of prioritizing, and, quite frankly (no pun intended), being a quick learner.

But all in all its going pretty well. Flew this morning at 0530. I'll be in the air again tomarrow at the same time. The checkride is scheduled for this wednesday. So thats about it. Very Stressfull!!!
 
Go ken go! Did you get FAA or DPE? Everyone here wants to know who you got.

Also, today I had the day off, AGAIN! Tomorrow I already know I am flying and who with, just dont know where. Time to pack all my #### again.

Took my commercial written today and passed. Only 2 more writtens left! At least with ATP.

How's Frank? We used to bet on how many times he'd say yum yum each day. Sometimes it would be 2 sometimes 8.

YUM YUM!!!!!

Frank isn't actually that bad at all. I think he just comes off kind of rude, but that really isn't the case at all. He's a great instructor as far as I'm concerned. I fly with him tomarrow morning.


MEOW!!!!!

I wouldn't get your hopes up quite yet. They sent us to iwa-vgt-ral like 3 times. El Paso is pretty much the point of no return ;)

1. Your right, we came right back. Also forgot to call dispatch and asked ATC to do it. Amazingly they got the # and called for us. Dispatch wasnt pleased.

2. Update us on CFI school.

3. Did you ever manage to see the smoking hot instructor in phoenix? If you saw her, you know who Im talking about.

Stuck in vegas. Which would be cool but they want us to call every hour just for them to tell us "its too windy."

At least we got to see the madness that is Vegas. I'm not as intimidated anymore...
