    United

    I'm not the brightest bulb on the tree, so I was looking to this board to help me understand something. United is trying to exit bankruptcy through dumping its pensions. Wouldn't it be better for all involved for them to simply go under? I'm not saying this with malice, but even those who...

    Coming home on your own airline

    Anyone ever gotten a rude flight attendant during their flight home on their own airline? I just went through the worst flight of my life while doing nothing but wearing my uniform and wondered if I was the only one.

    FAA sitting on their hands

    Today we were talking in the cockpit and we got on the topic of the FAA. Namely why they haven't moved to allow airlines struggling with fuel costs to go GPS direct, or made any move to change our duty regs. 16 hours on duty is far from safe. 12 hours seems reasonable. Seems to me people move...

    Crossing restrictions

    Can anyone point me to the FAR about crossing restrictions? I seem to have some conflicting advice from different captains about whether you slow down to hit that airspeed right at the fix, don't slow until after the fix, etc. I could have sworn ATC preferred a rapid decelleration (sp?) to hit...

    Surprising pay breakdowns.

    This is the first I've seen of this website. It certainly surprised me on a lot of payscales. Seems that a lot of what I thought was wrong. Interesting. I like how they added last captain upgrade and 401K matching too. http://www.airlinepilotpay.com

    Morale

    I like my job and the people at it. The next step is one that worries me. I'd like to be working another job I like and making lots of money, but it seems that I'm not going to get either. I understand the money aspect in the realm of today's problems, but why morale? I see posts all over...

    Advice for a new student

    I was thinking it would be a nice idea to let some aspiring pilots learn what some of us instructors have learned the hard way. Post what you would do if you had the time and money to start all over. Where would you go? How would you tailor your training knowing what you know now? Please try...

    SIC time?

    I recently got the opportunity to fly a metro (under 12,500 gross) to the center of MX and back with the captain. He let me fly the whole thing by hand, but I'm uncertain how to log it. I am not an employee of the company that runs the metro, and have no SIC rating. However, I did control an...
