    MDW Commuters

    For those commuting out of MDW, have you found any type of commuter parking? I was told crews can get the yellow badge access like in ORD, but now I'm hearing otherwise. Thanks!

    Sat-mdw

    Question for the SWA folks if you don't mind. I'm soon going to start commuting from Chicago to San Antonio, and I've been looking at using SWA primarily for the commute because of the destinations we serve (bypassing deadheads). Any commuters know if the SAT-MDW run is heavy for commuters? I...

    MDW Commuters

    Anyone know of somewhere secure and cheap (like free) place to park for a MDW commuter? How much is long-term economy costing these days on 72nd Street?

    Where have all the TWA gone?

    I was just curious, are there any companies where the majority of ex-TWA pilots have gone? Besides American, of course. :rolleyes: I just had the pleasure of flying with a long-time ex-TWA F/A (hired there in '74), and heard all the great stories. Man, what a fun trip. TWA was always my goal...

    What's new at ATA?

    Anything new going on there? Things just status quo? Haven't heard a bit of information how things are with the SWA code-share, or if flying is scheduled to increase or decrease.

    Memory Items

    I'm doing some research on emergency procedures, most notably memory items. I'm curious how many memory items (as in procedures, not individual actions) that you have for your aircraft and company? For instance, you fly a CRJ for ABC Airlines, and you have seven procedures that are memory items...

    Airplanes in Hawaii

    I'm out here in Oahu all week, and my friend keeps getting on my case about getting an airplane and flying around the island or over to Maui. She used to fly, but then got into the Naval Academy, and wasn't selected for a pilot position. So, whenever we get together, we try to go fly. But since...

    From another thread

    From the cover of a September 1983 AIR LINE PILOT magazine... "If unity at the national level is diluted, we would eventually face pilots giving away long-and-hard-fought-for gains that would eventually pit pilot group against pilot group." David L. Behncke, ALPA Founder 1931

    High Altitude Operations Books

    It is apparent many of us (I will include myself here) do not have extensive high-altitude experience when we started at the regionals. Therefore, unless our companies or schools taught us a lot about jet aircraft operation, we don't have much of a background of the subject. I know I have spent...

    Weather Radar Resources

    I just purchased a CD from Sporty's titled "How Radar Works" by Dave Gwinn. I heard that it is a really good synopsis of weather radar, going into some good detail. Curious though if anyone knows of any other really good resources on weather radar out there. Specifically for the Honeywell P-660...

    Some Techincal Questions

    I figured I'd post this here, since I'd imagine there is a more wide variety of experienced pilots viewing this forum. I've been reading the book "Fly The Wing" for the past week pretty religiously. Taking in all the info as best I can. From what I understand, the book was written back in the...

    Chicago Express #s Anymore?

    Is the GO completely shut down, or are there still some management people left around to contact? If so, anyone mind PMing me a phone number or two (VP, HR, etc.). I need to get in contact with someone there about an issue but am not sure who is left around or what numbers to use. Thanks!

    Chicago Express

    I just heard on WGN Radio News that Chicago Express has officially been shut down by ATA today. Is this true? I thought they had until April 1st. :( :( :(

    C8 - March 7th?

    Wasn't a sale decision to be made on March 7th? Any news?

    Embraer Performance Question

    This question was posed to me today, and I'm curious what others think. If you depart with the Anti-Ice in the ENG position, but do not expect to get ice on takeoff (strictly for contaminated runway), must you enter Anti-Ice ON on the takeoff data, and must you take the performance hit?

    Mandatory Reporting Points

    I did my first trip down to Mexico not too long ago, and pulled out my enroute charts and noticed mandatory reporting points (black triangles) on a few of our enroute fixes. I was ready to make the position reports. We were still with US controllers when we hit the first mandatory reporting...

    Delay Vectors, or Hold?

    This was brought up elsewhere on the internet about London-Heathrow, how often you will be given holds of 5-20 minutes inbound for arrival delays. This rather than provided vectors or constant speed adjustments. I was thinking about it tonight, and am surprised this isn't used more as a flow...

    International Commute

    Anyone had any experience commuting internationally? Like Europe to US for work, or maybe Hawaii to the States? Just curious how that went. I've heard of some long commutes. Worth it?
