Because being a doc is the same really regardless of who you’re working for. military flying is different. Not a lot of places you can fly a fighter. Or do the things they do with fatties (?). airline flying is boring as shit. It should not be the pinnacle of your flying career.

Delta just changed their addendum in airline apps. So if you’ve got an app soaking…be sure to reaccomplish that section.

Leadership comes and goes. As a faip, you’ll outlast them.

Or do something really stupid in the first year. Everyone will know your name. By the third year, nobody will remember why they know your name …. But they’ll still know your name.

If you’ve never sat down and chatted with a chaplain one on one, give it a try. If you’re not a religious person, most are very good at taking off the “religion hat” and putting on the “counseling hat.” Most are very receptive and flexible if you tell them you aren’t coming to them for Religious needs, you’re coming to them for their confidentiality. Highly recommend.

A toast!

That’s west.

There’s a lot of “hidden” or soft pay. At delta, a 4-day trip pays a minimum of 21 hours. But I may only fly 10-15 hours of actual block. some folks like to maximize that soft pay. Some folks want to minimize it (then any delays or changes result in more pay right away). On mans trash …. reference the grid (few posts back) and look at the various rigs (trip, duty, etc). That’s usually where the soft pay comes from.

Make sure you watch for dudes not wearing seatbelts too.

If you want a decent apples to apples comparison… look at a current / recent issue and go to “the grid” https://www.aerocrewnews.com/category/issues/ it will all be Greek for a while … but it will help you at least learn some of the terminology and which questions to ask

You can’t go wrong with white new balance shoes. Appropriate for all occasions!

Great! money where your mouth is …. Being the change you want to see and all that. nice to hear about actions rather than just words.

People without brain activity don’t recover.

I’ve yet to meet a violently pro-life individual that has adopted kids. im sure they exist … I just haven’t met one.

Which trimester is the planet in?

The queep only takes up as much time as you let it. what are they gonna do, fire you from your admin crap? Stop giving you important but non-flying tasks? It’s only as hard as you allow them to make it.

They’ve got great info and flowcharts for getting from A to B .... even if you don’t have to test / prep

Right now .... no problem. Airlines are waiving USERRA time limits left and right and are generally happy if folks are gone. I see that rapidly changing. USERRA gets you 5 years cumulative time away ... for orders over 30 days. Can you cobble together that last 6-9 months on 1-week orders.... prolly. But it might not be fun and it’ll take a while. some Airlines have traditionally been more flexible with timelines... some have held to the 5 year rule. That may change as well ... bird in the hand ...

Correct. It does not. but it does say you must be a citizen. So come up with a convenient and equitable method to prove citizenship and we’ll be all set.

I laugh every damn time. Such good memories of such a good old fashioned burn. Ahhhhh. Good times.

Wait .... are you suggesting there may be actual physiological differences between men and women. Weird

Standard finance issue resolution technique: find the first officer in the finance chain of command. They usually can’t do anything ... but they know the people that can.

Of course, zero information on cable news.
