If true, he deserved to die. My rule of thumb as a passenger: If I cannot drink the tap water in a particular country, I avoid flying on their airlines.

Disgusting, that Pos committed murder.

WEAREx-Okaloosa deputy found not guilty of manslaughter in ki...Former Okaloosa County deputy Eddie Duran was found not guilty of manslaughter on Thursday in the May 2024 fatal shooting of 23-year-old Senior Airman Roger For Not guilty

I still remember way back in interview prep, on a group video call for mock interviews, and a Raptor guy eventually says he’d just have to beat the CA unconscious and take the plane. The face/reaction of the HR chick running the mock interview was absolutely hilarious. Ummm sir, have you thought about bribing him with a steak dinner?

I vote for one of these, set to slow mode.

They are much worse to fly for than the big US carriers (work rules, schedule, you have to live/commute internationally to a shithole, etc.) There’s always some westerners willing to do it, but there’s a reason the vast majority won’t touch it.

During my contracting days, I flew out of Dubai numerous times, flew on Emirates directly to DFW. One time I was the only American on the jet except for the cabin crew, who were Scottish, and the Capt and FO were British. Maybe those airlines should look at you guys looking for jobs.

Captain was probably meowing on guard

Application submitted earlier today. AFPC was very quick to respond and ask us to include all attachments on the email, instead of PDF attachments like the PSDM says. Something about the system they're using to upload applications? Not sure, but heads up on that Sole applicant in my wing. Makes sense since most CGOs at my wing are pilots

Dibs!!!

with doors that will absolutely, definitely, not spontaneously detach...

pssst, @Biff_T , wake up.

People bash Boeing, but……

B-52 - "Hold my beer."

Captain Smit Machchhar, Indian national, stabbed by the Omani First Officer. Israel is already claiming it was terrorism, which might be a bit early to jump to that conclusion vs suicide. But I'm sure more info will come out as time passes. Crazy: "Hayun then described putting the attacker in a chokehold and pulling him outside of the cockpit before other passengers helped to pin him down. He added that he "pulled the controls" of the plane, explaining to Netanyahu that he watches Canadian documentary series Air Crash Investigation. "The plane started to level out, a bit more, and then [another] pilot told me he was taking control from there." https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cqjdv7pmj9dno

Only reason they didn't all die was because pilot was able to unlock the door. Crazy

still agree with what @arg said. I'll push them in if we need a volunteer.

The only worthy highlight of FL-Ole Miss game

Oldest beef in the world, Tastes Great vs Less Filling. Classic. Glad some crew got in there and some pax pilots got it on the ground, minus a rudder and all.

I wonder how much overlap/commonality the two airplanes will have. I'm sure that would be a selling point. STL is about to get packed with fighter production though since Boeing will be making the F-15EX, T-7 (finally assembly), MQ-25 (over a KBLV), and F-47. Looks like the F/A-18 line will convert to the F/A-XX

60 is fairly low, similar results to FY24 board. Curious if they had to course correct since they took all the alternates from last year, 80-90 UCT studs, and some OTS guys, and sent them all to UPT to hit the 1500 quota. Hopefully we all have the same luck this year!

https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/diverted-flydubai-flight-israel-was-not-hijacking-incident-israeli-prime-2026-09-30/ Whether truly a terrorism-plot and hijacking, or just a couple of middle eastern pilots doing middle eastern things, this is why I hate it when forced to fly on some of these airlines. Glad the cabin crew and some pax got it under control and safely diverted. Crazy.
