    Different Senority Lists Within A Company

    You're attacking my statement while not making any real argument to the contrary. I said it didn't make sense to me because he never really explained why it was better than the current system. Notice I didn't say there was anything wrong with most "other employment arenas" doing it that way, but...

    Different Senority Lists Within A Company

    That's a very nice trick trying to put me on the defensive, but if you're advocating a change you need to explain why your way is better besides "that's how the rest of the world works." I don't think I need to defend the status quo until someone actually makes a compelling argument as to how...

    Different Senority Lists Within A Company

    I reread your post, so you're saying if a Captain wants to jump ship to go to an airline with a better QOL does that means the FO's at that airline who want to upgrade have to leave to go to a crappy airline just so they can upgrade? Doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.

    Different Senority Lists Within A Company

    Didn't they already have this idea once? What you're talking about is a single pilot seniority list and I think the idea has been kicked around before. But you could never get everyone on board with such a scheme without an act of congress. Might make a good thesis for somebody though.

    UND/Cirrus Corporate Pilot/CFI Positions

    It sounds like a typical flight instructing job meaning you only get paid when flying, and maybe a per diem or something on the road. If they don't have a client for you at that time that means you're not getting paid. Maybe it doesn't happen that often, but I'd be pretty leery of signing a 12...

    UND/Cirrus Corporate Pilot/CFI Positions

    A one year training contract to be a Flight Instructor and you're not even paid the entire time? Hmmm.

    UND/Cirrus Corporate Pilot/CFI Positions

    I'm about to have my CFII reinstated soon. What is included in the "factory training"? What's the average amount of time spent sitting in the "pool" before you get hooked up with your first client? Are you on salary that whole time? I'm located in NW FL.

    Pilots detained in Brazil

    Awwww darn. It was so much simpler when we could just blame the Americans. :rolleyes: A perfect example why the details of an accident investigation should never be leaked to the media. So when's the execution scheduled for the controllers?

    Logbook accuracy

    I first heard that story in 1995, and it probably goes back much farther than that. An aviation "urban legend" passed down through the generations. It is probably true, but it happened a long, long time ago.

    Logbook accuracy

    So many of these stories start with "I knew this guy who pen whipped a bunch of time" and end with "he is now a Captain at XYZ Regional"... I know of a few of these types myself. If everyone knows someone like this then the answer is yes it is rampant, 9 times out of 10 they don't get caught...

    Pilots detained in Brazil

    FN FAL I like you a lot better when you simply try to enlighten us rather than browbeat, even if you are still a condascending @ss. ;) It's true the right to remain silent might help keep certain parties out of jail, but like the man said it will also put a chill on accident investigations...

    Pilots detained in Brazil

    With what you're advocating who is going to sit around and wait for the cops? It might not decrease the number of accidents but it certainly will increase the number of people fleeing the scene.

    Pilots detained in Brazil

    According to FNFAL there is no such thing as an accident. It's merely a crime that isn't being prosecuted. I guess I've been living in a dream world up until now. There is no spoon. :D

    Pilots detained in Brazil

    You can say that again. Every person from the pilots to the guy responsible for checking the runway for debris could face manslaughter charges if they link them to a crash. Can you imagine it? Some poor guy driving a truck who didn't see a hunk of metal on the runway could face 300+ counts of...

    You're right. I originally posted an article but I think I would rather get back on topic also.
