What's up with crews not turning in the Flight Logs? It seems lately that every time I fly I'm turning in 2 or 3 days worth of these things. This is how we get paid, you know. It's not that hard to walk them in. Just another thing to complain about here-carry on.
 
write up the last FO on the flight log. the 2nd write-up is a visit with the chief pilot. that should get it cleared up quickly.
 
Those are the same lazy fo's that don't clean the cockpit when they leave also!.

Generation Me.

Remember, these are the same kids who 2 or 3 months ago still had mommy cleaning their rooms for them.
 
Picking up is my biggest complaint. How hard is it to cross the seat belts and throw out your trash? It takes an extra three seconds and then you still have plenty of time to sit and stare out the window while pax deplane.

I understand the flight logs. I've forgotten a time or two but I started putting them on top of everything so when I block in, I take it out and put it on top of the flight kit.
 
Speaking of seat belts, attention new CR7 FOs:

You've probably heard how crabby 'ol Beal can be (if you don't know who I'm talking about ask). A good way to make friends with him is to get him an extender ahead of time and leave it neatly folded on his seat. He really appreciates this.

So you're the guy who keeps crossing the seatbelts...

Please explain that to me. When I come out to an airplane, I sit down in my seat directly on top of your pretty crossed seat belts. I then have to do some sort of backwards leaning handstand to get your seat belts out from under me, then I throw them where they are supposed to be on the side of the seat.

Amazingly they stay where put for the entire time and I sit there with confidence that I can reach down and put them on when I need them.

The world would be a better place if all that happened, plus:

All nap crews pick up a newspaper to leave in the cockpit whether they want to read it or not.

+

If you use a the company provided headset, there is a 99.5% chance the next guy doesn't so do not leave it on the chart holder.
 
hmmmm

I kinda like my seat belt crossed. That way I don't have to pry the ends out of the seat track/lever in order to put my seat belt on. I think the thing is to just leave the flight deck as neat as possible for the next guy. How things are arranged is a matter of preference and you're never gonna please everybody.

FO's--TAKE IN THE PAY SHEETS!!! I emphasize the word PAY!!!!!

AT
 
all it takes is a moment to move the seat belt when you slide the seat

versus

having to do cockpit aerobatics unless you like sitting there with a seatbelt up @#$

I would add...

- Please don't leave the company headset hooked up if you use it.

- For the love of God, please don't leave the sun visor on the track, torqued down as tight as it will go. Either you guys are much stronger than me or I'm starting to get arthritis in my hands, but I've wasted many minutes of my life trying to get those things off.

On another note, how sad a commentary is it that we actually have to have threads on how not to leave the cockpit a shambles for the next crew? What happened to common decency??

How about instead of writing someone up, you leave a note in their box? No need to cause disciplinary problems for someone over something so stupid.

Yes, I am one of those guys.

If they are loosened all the way, it is very easy to pull them out and cinch them up how you like them. No aerobics required. If they aren't loosened, it gets to be a chore and a basic pain in the butt.

The main reason I started doing this, is in the winter time, you wind up with glycol and other crap on the floor. I don't particularly like them covered with that crap. So if they go on the seat they stay clean and out of the seat tracks.

PM me your name and I'll be sure to check and make sure is you're flying after me to not cross em.

I've followed 2 VERY senior fo's on the 50 in the past 3 weeks that had neither turned in the logs nor picked up the cockpit.

The senior guys should know better, and deserve to have their trash bags returned to their mailboxes next time. As far as the new guys, they just deserve to get ridden hard on Flightinfo.

One that wasn;t mentioned yet...quit stealing the pens out of the planes. I went through 3 hotel pens with 3 AC swaps last week.

Best way to keep the pens in the planes: throw the cap in the trash. Nobody wants a pen with no cap in their pocket.

I know...it is EXTREMELY hard to flip them off the seat prior to sitting down....maybe you like AZZ play!:laugh:
You should be VERY CONCERNED at the fact that Oh Cheese is agreeing with you....:eek:

Amen. And I'm the one who's been getting your departure ATIS (printed no less, with LM). See those frequencies on #2? That's outbound ops and clearance. If I know the destination airport, and I'm really feeling chipper, why I'll even set that.
 
OK Sheet monkeys, I'm the senior FO on the 700 and this is how it is going to be:
  1. Any trash you leave behind will end up in your mailbox
  2. crossed seat belts chaff my already scarred ass....don't do it!
  3. One log sheet left behind is understandable, 2 means you're worthless
  4. Captains trash is his business, we ain't no cleaning beatches.
  5. Seat should be straight up, fully back, and AT MID HEIGHT instead of bottomed out for those of us with less than powerful thighs.
  6. No load manifest or flight logs left? You're a dead man/woman.
  7. I expect outbound ops and clearance to be preset into Com 2.
  8. 10,000ft on altitude select.
  9. Water bottles that are stuck on the a/c vent end up in the flight bag hole.
  10. Maxim or P boy in the can slot is appreciated.

write LAST PAGE on the last page comment section of the AC log/paysheets when you insert it
