    That's what I thought but for the 2.5 yrs before the furlough I'm upside down about 100k!

    heavy/double crew logging?

    It's not my plan. That's how UPS track's crew member flight time for tracking weekly, monthly and annual FAR flight time limits. The idea is that each crew member sits in a front seat for 2/3 of the trip.

    Curious, what do the Cargo and ACMI guys do for food enroute?

    UPS catering yes, ACMI's not mine except some of the PAX flights.

    heavy/double crew logging?

    Log 2/3 of the block, don't log PIC unless you are released as PIC. If you are released as PIC it would be ok to log it all (my opinion only). Personally I didn't log third crew member time not building time anymore.

    MD-80 Freighters

    Having flown both the 737F, and DC9F from a pilot point I can say that the DC9 has very few positives over the 737F. Most notably the ease of loading the 737 over the DC9 (door location). 737 will swallow both standard 125" and 108" (DC9) ULD's.. It's also difficult to load the 737 out of...

    QNE & QNH in mexico?

    Typically Mexico will not assign an altitude in the transition region. I have only once been leveled between the boundaries and only for a couple of minutes at that. I advised we were using QNH altimetry as we were descending and the response was affirmative . FL200 and 18,000' are typical for...

    owed by a person with an office on San Pedro Ave. in SAT owns a boat load of airplanes leased out to third world airlines. There were two UAL fluff's sitting in KSAT since at least '05 if there is only one then the other is out working some where in the world.

    UAL to not make it through the Winter???

    My bad, I thought the financial melt down was ultimately precipitated by Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, two liberal pet projects. Bush tried for eight years to find the votes to rain them in and close some of there loop holes but the votes never materialized...

    Amerijet Scabs/Jumpseat Heads Up

    God I hope not. We will end up with a single national seniority list. Imagine upgrading then some carrier goes under dumping a couple of thousand pilots senior to you in the woodpile. You could end up going back to the right seat for years and jerking gear for some old timer with only a few...

    Job Offer for all my Corporate Brethren -- CFI, CFII

    My guess MMA; probably the best place to live south of the Nueces river.

    Ameristar 737

    Thanks for the post! I stand corrected a lot more damage than I was led to believe. Man, I have some memories flying that machine. I have flown citations, lears, 737, md11, dc8's but the falcon is the best built and best flying machine of them all. sad

    Ameristar 737

    No, I have not flown 165TW in like 7 years and my Ameristar career is behind me. What I heard from someone that was there and there does not seem to be an incident on file, it appeared to me you were trying to stir the pot so to speak. There are a lot of people that have it in for AJI and...

    Then why did you make the original post if you already know everything?

    Ameristar 737

    from what I understand it was an over run due to a contaminated runway that resulted in damage to the nose gear that is too costly to repair due to the lack of availability of spares. ten years ago probably no big deal. quit trying to be so dramatic there was no bent metal and yes they are...

    Ameristar 737

    Judging by your ratings and experience I guess you know all, unlike someone that actually flew there on both sides for a long time. Your ignorance is obvious especially concerning the 121
