I just want to say that every time I browse the Major's board I feel proud to have made a career out of flying old broken down freighters.
Can I get an amen?
...really takes its toll on my sinuses.
I've tried saline spray and even KY Jelly (not the warming kind) and eventually induced a full blown sinus *infection*. Not good.
But a Capt that I recently flew with recommended a "nasal emollient" called Ponaris.
It ain't cheap. A one ounce bottle...
I talked to a Chopper 8KA this morning on Guard.
He was 17SSE of Hampton at 2000'.
I relayed a Center freq for him (twice) and I'm curious to know if everything was kosher. I didn't get a reply after the second attempt...we were already pretty South of his location by a couple hundred miles...
I just listened to a guest on Cavuto's show tell the world that pensions are what bankrupted the airline industry.
And of course, since he's on TV he has instant credibility right?
...that you haven't seen for years. Spend your days off visiting countries you've always wanted to see. You would be able to spend your days off *exactly* as *you* wanted to.
You wouldn't be saddled with home improvement projects or "honey do" lists, or visiting in-laws you detest or anything...

DALLAS — An eye-gouging fight between American Airlines and Southwest Airlines over air service in northern Texas has spilled over to an on-line encyclopedia.

Get this.
So I show up for work at JFK. A very nice and soft spoken Jamaican woman signs me in with the Capt and FE.
I'm the first to get the wand. You know, it's real casual, more like a blessing than "assume the position!"
Next she opens my bag and rifles through my skivvies and socks. I...
...walking to Central Park...and then back to Penn Station.
I drank a lot of water, got some serious blisters and then the very next day I got the *worst* outbreak of hives I've ever experienced in my life (from my neck to my legs)!
My first thought was that I developed a heat rash, but long...
I tried to locate the exact memo or bulletin but haven't found it yet.
But 135 (air taxi) guys are finally approved to ride jumpseat on Atlas.

Personal advice: have a back up plan and leave yourself...
...Regs). Conversely, BA will return you to North America if your pattern finishes with a BA flight. AZ on the other hand will only deliver you to *begin* a pattern. They won't return you on a pass even if your pattern finishes with an AZ flight. But this point may be moot soon as the Alitalia...
Just curious. Are there any Alaska Airlines (former JetAmerica) pilots on this board that can describe the events of this merger?
Do you recall the terms of the merger? Issues like seniority, training, different airplane types, bases, etc...
...head with two seperate browser problems.
One with IE and one with Mozilla.
I'm on the road and that makes troubleshooting a real pain in the butt *but* I'm wondering if I can get some more help from the computer savvy ones.
First prob: I cannot produce a cursor in any field when I run IE...
I just got this message in an email from the Northwest Airlines Mileage Program:
<<Beat the winter blues with our new seasonal service from Anchorage to Maui and on to Honolulu. Service will operate Thursday through Sunday between February 17, 2005 and April 3, 2005.>>
YES!! :D
I can imagine...
I got a show time in 23 hours.
If I sleep now, I'm screwed.
Tell me a joke, give me a riddle or a puzzle.
Call me names. Just don't let me fall asleep.
I can't handle any more tsunami on TV.
I suppose my first confession is that I never considered myself a bush pilot from the beginning. I've written about this elsewhere. And I've talked about it with other people so I apologize for covering old ground.
But I guess I just want to say that I've finally (after nine years) turned my...

The man (CatDriver) was kind enough to email me some beautiful PBY photos from Africa and South America but too humble to post them himself.
So he gave me permission to put them up for your enjoyment.
Enjoy!
:cool:
Urban myth or no?
I heard today that every Boeing has a piece of Seattle wood on it somewhere.
For example, the 747 has a piece of wood on the fuel jettison door that's used to prevent the door from being closed if any of the switches are positioned for dump.
Has anyone else heard this story...
...about operations that you know I have no experience with then you're just testing my ability to memorize again. Try asking questions about *my* airplane and *my* operations. Then you can gauge the depth of *my* experience and knowledge. Why do I need to know about Mach Tuck and Mach Trim and...
Here's a discussion for you. Reference the short discussion between myself, Typhoon and Enigma in the "Corollary to a Scab" thread.
I didn't want to hijack Orion's thread any further so I started this thread.
For the sake of argument, let's say I'm the PIC of a DC9 and I flew through the anvil...
