Just got back from a quick trip to Gabon and Cameroon. It was my first time ever to Africa. My daughters both used to live in Cameroon one of my daughters lived there for 2 years. It was great to visit even if we were only on the ground for 4 hours. The ATC system is really messed up, and the...
I just completed a great 7 day trip. We flew to LAS with a load of pax then positioned to ANC. We were flying out of ANC for two days. Our route went from ANC to point X following the Alcan. We did the route 4 times. It was wonderful to be back in God's country, Mt. Logan was an awesome site and...
Guess a 737 went down with a full load of pax and crew. They reported a problem right after take-off. Sha-me-shek(phonetic) is a resort city right at the base of Mt. Sinai along the Red Sea. It has two 10000+ long runways if I remember correctly. We used to fly tourist there from Gatwick when I...

Being a non-sked carrier as a captain deicing is really a pain. We have deicing set up at every airport but sometimes I feel that the ground handlers just tick the box. Which airports do you feel have the best deice situtation especially pertaining to large aircraft ops. Right off the bat I...
My daughter lives in Mamfe, Cameroon. Do any of you guys know anything about ID-90 or jumpseating to Africa. I can go via Paris or via South Africa, anyway will work.
This is May, all we are suppose to get are afternoon thunderstorms at the most. It has been raining one of those "Northern Rains" since 0600 this morning. Nice weather to practice approaches in. I live 2 miles from FXE, a good day to spend some time on "the board."
I took my wife out to see the movie "The Pianist" last night. It is a great movie filmed on location. It is good to see the oppression and to think that our troops just freed a whole slug of people makes all the headaches worthwhile.
This is not my fight but I see managememt going for some pretty heafty salary cuts. Also they are to layoff 2400 pilots. The problem is Carty said that all this effort will keep from an immediate BK11. The indications are that unless the market really changes in the next few months travel will...
PartIII Now it is about 1993 and I am an FO on a Learjet 23 and doing maint. on the airplane during the day. We are at 310 on a check run from JAX to MIA. We are flying right at MMO which you always do when you are flying checks. It came time for the decent, we had a female passenger along who...
Every time I turn around someone on this board is calling it quits. Why???? The only diffrence between flying a C-210 on a check run and a large airplane is the money. That is all. I can guarentee that most of you have a lot more left over at the end of the month than I do. If you are flying...
My wife only got two bags of candy for the trick or treaters tonight. I ran to the store and bought another $40.00 worth of candy. So far we have only had 3 trick or treaters and I have egg all over my face with my wife saying "I told you so." This is the first time I have been home on the 31st...
