I'll be commuting out of DTW in a few weeks. What are my options for employee parking? I am not a Northwest, Mesaba, or Pinnacle person.
Drop me a PM with ideas or suggestions.
Thanks.

I must have been eating cheese yesterday...
So my coworker and I are parking the airplane at some gate in Philly (normal enough). The parking brake has been reported as "not working", but nobody has written it up. We park and the people start getting off. Suddenly, the airplane is rolling...
Okay, this will not degenerate into a bashing thread. I am a Chautauqua pilot and it's been awful hard to sort through all the noise the last few days.
I just have a few questions regarding the Expressjet fleet and pilot group. Namely, how many airplanes do you currently operate, and how many...
It's been posted over and over, the subject of many jokes, and the avatar of choice for many, but here it is again. Always funny...

Enjoy.
Just curious. I got a call the other day from a coworker. I was supposed to fly with him, and he hadn't heard that I was out on medical leave. Aside from wishing me well, he told me how the drug testing people were looking specifically for me (and not the reserve guy) at the end of the day for a...
So here I sit with a lame hand. Last Saturday, my girlfriend and I were setting up a fish tank. Long story short, I broke the glass vase, cut myself very badly, and ended up taking my first trip in an ambulance to the ER. I gave myself a 4 cm gash along the base of the my right thumb, in the...
Remote control airplanes ARE NOT like for-real airplanes.
My girlfriend got me an "entry-level" remote control airplane for Christmas this year. Cool gift, total surprise, and it's always been something I've been curious about, so I thought it was pretty thoughtful of her. Spent a few days...
I was walking into work yesterday and noticed an ASA ATR climbing out from BUF. Never seen one up there and was just wondering how it found it's way up to the Great White North. A one time only replacement for a broken CRJ? I imagine it's a long haul to Atlanta in an ATR.
So my used and abused DC headset finally crapped out on me a little while ago. A little kink in the cord was causing the speaker volume to fade away to nothing at worst times. So I sent it back to David Clark for a repair. Just got it back yesterday. Not only did they replace the cord, the...
A few weeks ago while we were boarding, the flight attendant came up and handed us a small logbook, much like those little logbooks that come with the Jeppesen Private Pilot starter kit, except it was a "passenger logbook". We asked her what is was and she said, "I don't know, some passenger...
Alright folks, it's too hot here to do anything outside, and despite the fact that I have a million things I COULD do around the apartment on my day off, I'm not doing them. And since the usual backpack vs traditional luggage, MDA vs CHQ, ASA vs SKW, 190 vs mainline shouting matches are getting...
...to be slippery.
But I wonder, as I have in the past while reading various threads on our wonderful little playground here, where does all the " ***censored*** " stuff come from? Is that some kind of automatic filter this website applies to certain key words (even though it wouldn't seem so...
Okay, weird title, I know.
Reading another thread about the Mesaba crew getting canned for the 12 hour rule, I got to wondering about something I had heard years ago. This is not a debate about the 12 hour rule, drinking on trips (legally or not) or bashing anybody, so there should be no need...
So I was sitting in IAD today, trying to get out before the storms rolled through, and of course the ramp couldn't get us out before the powers-that-be closed the ramp for lightning strikes. So we sat there for almost 2 hours turning fuel into noise, all closed up, ready to push back, listening...
Just a quick airplane question for the 146 guys. Always been a fan of that airplane, I remember riding on them between LAX and SFO on PSA (the original one of course) as a kid, and I've had the chance to ride on an Air Wisconsin 146 a few times in the last couple of years.
Always thought it...
Just a question for all the Avro, 747, and A340 people (or anybody else who flies a 4 engine airplane).
When you're taxing around trying to save a little gas, and if you shut down an engine (or two), which ones do you shut off? 1 and 4? 2 and 3? Aside from any system specific requirements...
The other day, we had a #1 Hydraulic System lose all (or most) of it's quantity. "E1 HYD PUMP FAIL" and "HYD 1 LOW QUAN" (or similar, you get the idea) were presented. The hydraulic page showed the quantity carrat pegged to the left, in the amber, with the electric pump ON. No other EICAS...
