    More UPS info

    Really? I seem to see it on all the time. Why the attitude? Why be a jerk? Maybe this is why most everyone moved to APC.

    More UPS info

    Fantastic!

    Air Defense Capability - Iran

    A B-2 could fly over Moscow, London, Havana, and any other country and not a sole would be the wiser.

    T-38 replacement??

    There will not be a replacement for the -38. UAVs are growing exponentially and the need for F-22/F-35 pilots decreases as production levels are cut. We'll never see another new bomber, tanker, and certainly not another supersonic fighter pilot trainer IMO. You'll see all of SUPT done in a T-6.

    Hiring ay UPS?

    That's actually pretty funny.

    Should captain pay top out at 150K?

    Even I think Instructor dude is crazy. I'm just saying that capts that think they deserve 300k are nuts. We even have some at UPS that brag about making 400k. Given the supply of pilots there is no way we should be making that.

    Should captain pay top out at 150K?

    So does a bus driver. Get the money while you can folks. 15 years from now there won't be the ridiculous pay scales at the pax carriers like they have now. Go figure that at United, which is a marginal company in and out of bankruptcy, there still are fat, lazy, baby boomers making 200k...

    Should captain pay top out at 150K?

    I made 150k as a 3d year FO and was home almost every night.

    No more excuses= up your pay!

    Nope, but I have an MBA. Does that make me evil?

    No more excuses= up your pay!

    MBA types are in demand and those with the know how can negotiate their pay. It's all supply and demand. I fly an A-300 now. It's 10 times easier than flying the KC-135 when I was a new aircraft commander with 1000 hours total time. We get what we can negotiate. WIth the tens of thousands...

    No more excuses= up your pay!

    You're crazy dude. Wake up and smell the reality. There are thousands of guys who are not in the airlines that could fly the planes just as safely and efficiently as the fat, lazy, 50-something baby boomers doing it now. Yes our profession takes years of training and a lot of sacrifice. But...

    fedex in iraq accident?

    Flying into Wichita or Toledo for peanuts is bad. Flying into BGD for peanuts is crazy. Big difference.

    Calling FROM Somalia

    Somalia?? Are you sure he is not in Djibouti? I don't think we have US troops in SOmalia let alone DSN lines!

    Never fight someone who has less to lose than you do.

    What's up at Gemini?

    Hahahahahhahah Patting yourself on the back due to a compliment from TSA. HAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHA That's like Britany Spears telling me I am a great parent. Maybe you can get some business advice from the United CEO.

    Be ready or take myself out of the game?

    I spent 10 years AD and grew to hate AMC with a passion. To say that I was bitter after 6 deployments in 2 years is an understatement. An ART job making 160k is a far cry from AD and the Blk 40 FMS makes the tanker fun to fly. You'd be nuts to give that up!! There may be some guys from ABX...

    ILN Rally

    Your point is noted. I'm not intending to "rub it in" in any way. It sucks and I can sympatize with those guys. I'll choose my words a little more carefully in the future.

    ILN Rally

    UPS retired all the 727s last year and all of the 747 classics are almost gone, (will be gone by end of the year.) The DC-8s are being parked as well due to fuel costs. This is all about efficiencies of airplanes and has nothing to do with people.

    A300 questions

    The A300 has a speed trend arrow. I was taught not to use known pitch and power settings. If you lose airspeed info there are pitch/power settings on the yoke. With that being said, I have noticed 1.07 EPR to be a common number on a fully configured approach. The only other advice I can offer...

    DHL using airplanes for the express side was inefficient. UPS will be flying some of the cargo on existing airplanes but will also truck and send by rail a lot also. DHL knows that UPS has the resources to do it cheaper. Using DC-9s has just become too expensive given the recent oil market...
