Are any guys working overseas starting to have issues with the FATCA law?
If you are unfamiliar, this is the U.S. law aimed at catching tax cheats and require all foreign banks report the accounts of any U.S. citizens and requires the bank to comply with U.S. banking laws. In many parts of the...
Do foreign carriers have the same PRIA access to training records as domestic U.S. carriers? This was recently brought up on an internal company message board, one pilot who is looking at overseas work wanted to get a copy of his training records to send to a prospective new employer. The...
Sad news. It sounds like it happened on a layover. Not much other official info, but some other message boards indicate no injuries and that he still had his wallet on him.
Condolences to his family, friends and co-workers. And everyone remember that you do not have to go to a third world...
I have not seen it posted here, but USA 3000 announced it will wind down operations officially in 2013. All aircraft being returned to leasing companies as their leases expire between now and October 2012.
Spent two good years of my life there, sad to see it slowly die away.
Hello,
I will need to be without my passport for 2-3 months while a residency permit is being processed for another country. If get a new passport card, can I use that for jumpseating purposes in lieu of my regular passport, or do I have to rely on a seat open in the back during the time I am...
I have heard many horror stories regarding Asian medicals. Is there any place in the USA that is familiar with the standards over there - particularly China - that will do an exam? Looking at opportunities over there but it will require removing a circling limitation and possibly paying for a PC...
Okay I have been doing a bunch of reading and posting on this and other sites and can't ever seem to get much of a straight answer.
So, who exactly is hiring in the gulf right now. Emirates, Etihad, Qatar, FlyDubai, Air Arabia? What equipment are they hiring to? Qatar does not post pay and...
A quick survey for all of you.
Why do most checklists (at least the four aircraft I have been typed on) ignore cabin O2 for pax with regards to smoke or fire?
What are your thoughts on this, do you provide O2 for the pax if there is smoke or not?
I know my answer but do not what to skew...
Anyone out there know if this is a difficult commute or not? Looks like 13 non-stops/day between American, United and Airways. Only done it once on UAL from ORD to PHX and had no problem. Curious if it is doable on a regular basis before I put a bid in for ORD.
Yes I did a search before asking.
Okay, I will be the first to admit that I am no genius. But I did some figuring the other day and this oil mess and the effect on airlines just doesn't make any sense to me.
Like many airlines, my company requires that we get a fuel slip prior to departure. Additionally our paperwork includes...
I know this has been beaten to death, and yes I have done searches.
But in a few weeks I need to get to one of the following: Paris, Frankfurt, Hong Kong or Tokyo and will be leaving from the New York metro area.
In June which is harder, Europe or Asia? What airlines are easiest to catch a...
Just curious if someone knows what the eyesight requirements are for contract jobs in places like China, India, Vietnam etc. Lasik yea or nay, worst uncorrected, and such. I have searched over at pprune.org and can't find much info.
Thanks
In 2003 and 2004 I commuted from MCO to CLE on CAL and found it relatively easy even though I was offline (not a CAL employee). Planes were often full but rarely ran into jumpseaters. If I were to get on with CAL, how long to hold CLE and does anyone know what the commute to CLE is looking like...
Something tells me this isn't going to go well.
Delaying pushback so they can get a three year old and mommy two seats next to each other...
A screaming two year old sitting in between two business travelers while mommy is stuck 15 rows back...
Sounds like fun times ahead...

No more CommutAir in PLB and SLK?! What airline is this? CA1900, did you submit a bid for the PLB domicile before you left? What are the PLB folks going to do? Where is HQ going? Intreguing questions.
First off, yes I did search.
Okay, my one year is coming up. How do I go about re-applying? Do I log back on using my original information, or do I start from scratch? There have been some comments about having to call the PD, is this true?
Lastly, any idea on the time frame/success rate at...
