I’m just here for the free beer and cookies now.
2 years retired, so my well of knowledge on many pertinent topics is getting pretty outdated. Just hanging out now ‘cause I haven’t been kicked to the curb yet, and it’s more fun than folding laundry.
@derg, is there a way to re-focus the website’s purpose just a wee bit? Maybe hatchet job a lot of the existing forums and purposefully focus on mentoring and further developing people within this group, mainly pilots but dispatchers, mechanics, etc., as well. Many/most here are now well established and the problems of not knowing how to proceed in aviation have been solved by most, and it’s a time when complacency can settle in. At this stage people are competent in what they do, but there is always more to learn, but there’s not always incentive to do so. I know that you, and others here, do a lot of stuff in your jobs besides just flying airplanes, and while much of it is presumably proprietary to each company, maybe a way to enable those tools and insights on a peer-to-peer basis might inject some fresh purpose here?
