I believe that the flaps were never fully retracted after takeoff. Doing a Flaps 3 takeoff out of LGA is not uncommon in the A320. So they might have retracted them to position 1+F just before they hit the birds and then just left them there until impact. As someone mentioned before the book...
I think it is only a matter of time before SWA or B6 start flying to Europe. It will take some time but it does make sense since the transatlantic flying seems to offer higher yields. I can see 787's in SWA colors and A330's or A350's in B6 colors in the next 5-10 years....
I was considering such a move, that is why I'm asking what you guys think. The only thing that scares me is what happens when UAL (or any other major) merges or buys CAL.
Up until a year ago I was paying $80 a month (employee rate)... I believe it is the most expensive airport parking in the country. I don't need it anymore so I'm not sure if there is a better rate now. The place used to be called Logan Park and Go, but I believe it has a new name. All the...
I stop drinking juice of any color long time ago (including the ALPA juice). In my opinion a lot of JB pilots are over reacting to the latest road show news. I just don't think getting ALPA on the property now will help our cause, just my opinion!!!
Good point! and I certainly don't like healthcare premiums going up. But how in the world is ALPA or any other union lower my healthcare premiums?
By the way I'm happy to see you guys get pay raises and contract improvements, you deserve it!, however, you can't really compare the ALPA...
Blue bayou,
Great post! I share your perspective on the recent pilot road shows at JB and the overall perspective of where B6 was just a few years ago and how far it has come. I have been at B6 for a little over a year. I was with an ALPA carrier before and guess what.... I watched my pay and...
Zipperhead,
sometimes the calls go out late in the evening! I was called after 7:00pm, I think it was around 7:30pm, a little over seven weeks after my interview in Sept. Hang in there...like I have said before it is well worth the wait! Take care and good luck!
mannyaplus11,
you look good in your bathing suit!!!! HA HA HA!
For those of you waiting in Phase 2 be patient! it is worth the wait! I waited over 7 weeks....GOOD LUCK!
Weather is warm (range about 55 to 80 degrees, average high around 70)
As far as the December class goes, I heard that they just made the Nov. 30th class bigger (50 people total) to make up for December. For those of you waiting in Phase 2 be patient and good luck. I interviewed in Sept. and I...
As far as I know they haven't called any of the Nov. 2nd/3rd interviewees yet. I have several friends in Phase 2 anxiously waiting... I was in Phase 2 for over 7 weeks.....I was going crazy!
