that was awesome, you just brought me back to my youth! speaking of that, i was pricing haro's the other day for kicks, and they are cheap now. back in the 80's a new haro was going for $400. i saw new ones the other day for less than $300. crazy. end of thread hijack.

I owned a Mongoose, with mags. You can find it in WalMart now, which is sad.

If you owned a VHS of "Rad" you can pick your class date!!

A Beta of "Gleaming the Cube" will get you an interview. Bonus points for a Nash skateboard and a quarter pipe in your driveway that you and your buddies built.

Last month I watched "Howard the Duck" on VHS from the public library. Couldn't find that movie *anywhere.* What does that get me?
 
Today we see all airlines cutting capacity by HUGE numbers.

By the end of summer all tickets will be $500 EACH WAY!!! As it should be.....

..the pax will pay, but will they still be satisfied with Bernice and Brucey in Brown Hot Pants making a$$es out of themselves and commercial aviation? Doubtful.

"...we now return to your regularly scheduled circle-jerk.."

What type of capacity cuts will SWA announce?
 
I personally would NOT defer a class date. Seniority is the key in this business and a few numbers could mean the difference in upgrade or not when a slow down or for example age 65 goes to 70.

We have many F/O's who were looking at upgrade early this year who now are waiting it out now and aren't too happy.

That is awesome dude. I have lost my copy of RAD somewhere in my last 12 moves but used to have a bitchin Redline RL 20. Used to have a halfpipe in the woods behind the house. Those were good times.
 
Does anyone know what the rules are if they call you for a class and you need to go to the next one, how does that work?

You need to be sure you "need" to skip a class. A guy hired in April 2001 has been a captain for almost a year and a guy hired July 2001 isn't even upgrade material yet.

I'm not saying I'm just saying.........

I got the monthly "poolie" letter in the mail today, but it curiously didn't mention any Aug classes? Anybody in DAL hear anything about class dates for Aug?

I just spoke to PD today and asked about August. They will have an August 6th class. That's all they know for now regarding August.

Further list updating . . . I know I'm in class with PandasFly & it's pretty safe to assume we're in class with those above us, too.
