  1. Captains, as full fledged CRM ninjas, should be able to fly competently with anyone. 
     

    That’s the explanation I was given as to why captains don’t get to bid to avoid people. 
     

    also prolly because their bids get run first … so the FOs are unknown at the time

    Wait, you guys don't remember when you chose to be straight? Or any of your other sexual preferences/kinks? (This is sarcastic).

    I remember exactly when many … so many…of my wonderful kinks revealed themselves to me. 
     

    good times. 
    good times.

    I actually really enjoyed SOS. Had a great flight and flight CC (C-130 pilot). Also had a controversial idea to show up there and not be an asshole to the non-pilots and just try to learn and make friends. Seemed to work out well.

    And there was drinking and flickerball!

    ….and that if I was exposed to anthrax I would be protected….

    IIRC, the anthrax vaccine was never really tested against inhalation nor “weaponized” anthrax…. It was developed to counter skin infections in sheep farmers/shearers. So there may be a big question mark over your “protection”

    But that was a long time ago, and those brain cells have been abused.

    Did the same in 38's with a travel pod.  Lobster and ice at Westover, made it back to Laughlin nice and fresh.

    We’d do the same with crawfish from Acadiana. Gotta stay a thousand or so few below the freezing level to keep them alive

    Question for the Airbus drivers: if these guys were in an A330 instead of a 777 would this have been another AF447, or was there there some kind of update after that crash to make competing commands more obvious?

    The jet bitches at you if both sides are making inputs … and one side can completely override the other now.

  7. Same shit they were telling us 6-9 years ago …. Feel free to leave we’ll make more and what not. 
     

    glad to see they’ve learner their retention lessons. 
     

    get your foot in the door at a major yesterday. Then you can dabble in the guard until you realize your loosing significant money for every TP. 
     

    For most folks, that’s somewhere year 2 or 3.

    Yeah I get that, I'm more confused how a single federal judge (there are 1700+) can overrule the executive branch thereby reversing nationwide policy. And if all we had to do was find a single federal judge who didn't like the rule and sue in that court why tf did it take this long. 

    I’d guess that the vast majority of judges actually take their profession seriously ….

    Yeah, I don't how someone would fall to do something, anything to stop the aircraft from accelerating uncontrolled.  Never say never but I don't think the Max accidents would have happened within US or European airlines. 

    Documentary also said that if you didn’t counteract runaway mcas, an issue nobody was aware of at the time, within 10 seconds it was unrecoverable.

    Seems like NBOKC is the go to lender here on this page.  As a veteran myself, I'm extremely happy you have all been satisfied with their services, rates, and, process. That is so great.

    I would encourage you all, however, to shop around. Ask the MLO what their brokers commission is.  If it's 2% or higher, there are better options out there. (2% is the industry standard for most brokers), hidden in the rate they provide you.

    If the broker charges less than 2%, that savings is actually passed on to the borrower...guess what, my broker charges less than 2% which makes are rates lower than nearly every company in CA.

    We are a small and lean company, making us a leader in this industry.  In fact, Citizens Financial is only 1 of 10 mortgage brokerages in CA to be able to partner with CIT (recently bought by First Citizens Bank). CIT is aiming to lend to minority groups, lower income families, and areas that have traditionally been denied mortgage opportunities.

    That partnership allows us to provide 100% financing with $25,000 of down payment assistance.  Call it a gift from the lender. AMAZING!!  UNHEARD-OF!!

    Other than that, we have partnerships with nearly 20 lenders. All have their own niche. A-papwr loans, low credit scores, as low as 500, HELOCS, HELOANS, FHA, VA conventional, reverse mortgages).  You name it, we can do it for you

    If you keep getting "no, I'm sorry" then you should call, text or email me.

    925-335-6485 or jesse@citizensfinancial.co

    This isn’t exactly the low credit score, lower income, denied previous mortgages crowd. 
     

    read the room dumbass.

      Why would anyone jeopardize the safety of their brothers and sisters and pollute the aviation gene pool by passing someone who is incapable of hacking the mission for a bottle of booze?

    That’s the key.

    exspecially in a training squadron.

    The Batman...Best DCU movie since Nolan (which is also before the DCU).

    I liked it. But I’m not sold on Pattinson. He’s got the correct jawline…but is just too small

    I still remember sitting in the seat doing my preflight when the CA showed up and the first words out of his mouth were "So, what did you do to get stuck with this crappy trip?" Told him I was a reserve call out, so I asked him what he did to get stuck with it. I will never forget his answer:

     

    "I bid off the wrong bid package... got my first choice!"

    Turn out he was looking at a bid package from 2 months ago when he listed his choices. Bet he never did that again.

    The trip did really suck. SEA-BOS BOS-SAN Deadhead to SEA SEA-EWR EWR-SEA The report time out of BOS was brutal.

    It’s so fundamentally insulting to assume people with similar skin color think alike.  People who say that are just idiots.  

    I believe the term you’re looking for is racist
