    HARD landings

    Salina Kansas at night. I don't know if it was the extra wide runway or the fact I needed some of that Flower love. It was pretty damn bad!

    How do you file a complaint for a controller error?

    Yeah, I don't have to give my initials over the freq. If you have a problem with the controller then get the phone number, call them when you shut down, talk to the supervisor. They have to put a "Q" in the daily log meaning QA meaning the QA specialists then have to pull the tape and...

    SkyWest to move CR9s from SLC to ORD and then furlough?

    We don't need anymore RJ's at ORD.

    Best Net Book!

    Dell Mini 10V with mac 10.6 Its a little macbook. I hacked one, then created a new skin for the front. It works perfect. Much better to haul to work then the macbook pro. If your not a mac guy then disregard.

    ORD Pilot Shop?

    The old store is long gone. Year or so. Walked through the tunnel last night on the way to my mid shift and its just a lame gift shop.

    OAK 27L/R Departures - Jet Aircraft

    yeah, its noise abatement for Alameda. Also has conflict for AC departing or missing on 29. I know its a long taxi over to 29 but controllers don't taxi you to a rwy far away to be jerks, there is an operational need for it so suck it up and just taxi to 29

    Tower windspeed calls

    Yeah, only required to issue wind when any sort of tailwind component exists....also during times of windshear/microbursts for 20 minutes until last report. As for the moral obligation.....I usually read the wind 99% of the time for landing aircraft, rarely for departures due to the fact the...

    CAL/UAL Merger Done Next Week

    "But the all-important United pilots union is on board as supporting a United-Continental merger. "I think it's a step in the right direction," said one United Boeing 767 captain late Thursday, when he was informed that United and Continental had agreed on the details of a merger deal." I...

    KLAS Departures

    and what would these operational purposes be? Getting in the air quicker, stopping everyone else at the appropriate runway from departing?

    Ever get Turned or Slowed for The "Love Machine"?

    Did you have the entire flick in your B1900? Is it possible said MD-11 was in some sort of distress. Hydraulic issues or any other issues. As a controller I see this time and time again, a plane comes in with a problem and period point blank that airplane will not be going around under any...

    lax v. phx atc

    There is no such thing as a training facility. Yes, we do get paid on the amount of traffic we work hence the reason each facility has a numerical rating. 5 being the smallest and slowest....the VFR towers, and the level 12's being the centers, the busy tracons and the busy towers like ATL and...

    Brakes work...

    I hear you Jeff....The other day a AAL 777 landing 27R floated a good 4000ft down the runway, touched down near the 14L intersection. My jaw dropped. Why he didn't go around I don't know, but they finally greased it, slammed on the brakes and almost ran off the runway. I say plant the plane...

    just be happy you landed on a runway and not a taxiway.
