    Airtran JS question

    Unlimited Jumpseats? I tried to jumpseat a few weeks ago and the gate agent in ATL said that someone had already signed up for the jumpseat. There were seats on the airplane when it left but she would not let me sign up and the crew was already on the plane. What gives?

    SWA crew change question...

    Almost correct...... They can leave as long as a pilot subs in for a flight attendant that is gone. That means that there will always be at least three people at the aircraft to handle the pax if something happens at the gate. It may look like there is no one in the back but the B flight...

    Major airlines and Laser Eye Surgery

    Had Lasik done also I had the top of the line Lasik done in October 05' and still have 20/15 vision. The problem was that I was near sighted and did not need glasses for reading and now I have to have "reading glasses". They are drug store 1.0 glasses so that is not much but I would have had to...

    XM or Sirius at Altitude??

    XM is the way to go... My Delphi MyFi has XM2Go built in. That means it is like an MP3 player in that it will playback anything you record up to five hours worth. The unit has a built in antenna but also has a small three inch suction cup antenna that you can stick on the unheated southfacing...

    SNA Takeoff

    SNA Departure SNA still has the noise pollution Nazi's monitoring every takeoff. Transponder code IN and OUT, 65% power-up then release the brakes, rocket down the runway, steep climb to low altitude, power back to 65%, leave the area then power up and climb out on normal profile. What a...

    TSA's new rules for J/S

    TSA... no rules.... just hassles. I also commuted out of ATL yesterday and did not have a problem. In fact, I would never have known that there might be a problem until I read this thread. I just walk up to the First Class/Crew Member line, flash my crew ID at ATL's finest ticket/ID...

    Don't call collect!

    Phone Cards Expire I found out he hard way (lost money) that phone cards expire. I needed a phone card when I forgot my phone on a four day trip so I bought one with a lot of minutes. The more minutes you buy the less cost per minute. I sure was surprised less then a year later when I could...

    SWA Health Care for Retired Mil

    Both em' In the immortal words of Deon Sanders from his old Pizza Hut commercials, "both em'". I use SWA United Health Care as my primary and then use Tricare Standard (no cost right now) as my supplement insurance. Sometimes the doctors office doesn't even ask for a co-pay until they have...

    Places to live in the Atlanta area?

    CT and RT Ross and I want to know what you have against diesel repair shops? We are planning to open one right across the street from your West Cobb crib. And don't try to relocate to Brookstone with us. We have covenants prohibiting Texans. Yep, you guessed it. I moved down the hall and now I...

    Places to live in the Atlanta area?

    West Cobb is best! I have been in the West Cobb area of Atlanta since the military moved me here in 96'. It is great but growing fast. The housing prices are steadily rising but there are plenty of nice homes in whatever price range you are willing to spend. Most of the newer subdivision are...

    question for swa folks

    Definitely -700 Having flown round dial and glass prior to SWA I already had a preference - glass. As previously noted the glass gives you a much better situational awareness, easier scan, and the ability to move information from display to display. After flying a few trips in the -3/500 and...

    SWA 31 Aug DB calls going out!

    Possible class date. A buddy of mine got the call this morning (beginning of the alphabet) and was told to expect class date around March-April 05 time frame. He was told that the class dates for next year are not firm yet so that was the best guess for him. Side note for you hopefuls, this...

    Any SWA pilots in Shreveport?

    SHV commuter - I know one FO that lives in SHV and drives the two hours to work in HOU. The good part is that he only has to drive it once a week. I know he is trying to get to DAL but I believe the drive will still be about two hours.

    DAL's new management team

    Aviation Week Article The problem with the "Aviation Week" article by David Bond that was quoted is that he failed to name the "big six" airlines. USAir is the number seven airline in the US and Southwest is the number six airline and has been for over a year. Mr. Bond talked about the...

    DAL Guys and Gals...Jumpseat???

    Unlimited plus jumpseats- To add to what 737Tanker said, we allow unlimited jumpseats to those airlines he listed but still allow two jumpseats to the other airlines. Meaning, if an ATA and AWA pilot show up for the jumpseat first and then a DL pilot shows up, the DL pilot can still get on the...
