    Best zero time to regional route

    Although my friend is a good dancer and hopeless at sports, he is neither black nor a women. Do those organizations really want people who do not fit the namesake of their organization filling their ranks?

    Best zero time to regional route

    With the 1500 hour rule now in effect, what is the best way for someone with zero time to get the minimums to apply at a regional? I am not asking if it should be done, but if it had to be done, what is the best option.

    Traveling with a dog

    I am flying out to pick up a rescue puppy in a few days and was wondering what your experience has been with flying with pets. Did you pay the fee, sneak it on, or did the gate agent let you on without paying the fee? Is there a specific airline you try to fly when you have a pet with you?

    Gifting your way into first class on United

    I have an upcoming vacation to Asia and a round trip out of SFO in economy is a reasonable $82. Since UA upped the amount they charge for employees to upgrade to first/business class, they want over $800 for the trip if I upgrade. Has anyone had luck giving the purser some gifts for the crew...

    Do you have to wear earplugs in addition to the 850s?

    Best RJ Headset

    Since it has been a couple years since this has been talked about, what do you think is the best RJ headset? Right now, the Clarity Aloft Link, Bose Q15 + Uflymike, and a 15 year old pair of David Clarks that leak gel from the ear seals all seem like solid choices.

    Restrictions when flying OMC internationally

    Gotcha. There are few things I love more than flight attendants who make up policies on the fly. I am assuming the UAL policy is no alcohol while OMC in the cabin, correct?

    Restrictions when flying OMC internationally

    Last week I flew internationally and I was able to get a seat in 1st while flying OMC. Midway through the flight, a flight attendant informed me that as an OMC, I cannot fly in first and am only eligible for business class or economy when flying OMC. Is this true? Where can I find a list of...

    Annoying things your CA/FO does, 2011 version

    I get kind of irked by capts who are oblivious to the parking break’s position and do random stuff for 5 minutes after the main cabin door is closed. The flight is now late, and we haven’t been getting paid. Over the course of a 4 day, your negligence added up to costing us an hour of pay...

    Options if you have no 121 PIC

    As more regional CA's become lifers, there are more and more FO's have been stuck in the right seat with no chance of upgrading for years now. Now that Delta has stopped hiring, are there any other places, cargo or passenger, that are hiring/accepting applications that don't require 121 PIC?

    Finding a cargo flight to commute on

    Over New Years, I have a long layover in ELP and want to make it home, and fly back to ELP the next day. Even though I am not done late, there are no airline flights, either connecting or direct, to get me back. How can I find a list of scheduled cargo flights out of El Paso?

    Polls closed with all precincts reporting. Pay package voted down. Hope voting this down is a big step in raising the bar for everyone.

    Skywest SAPA proposed pay package is out

    MDG had to be changed to 3:57 b/c this agreement changed the number of days reserves work from 20 to 19. 19 days * 3:57 = 75h5m

    American 870

    Coming into ORD today American 870 lost an engine on approach. They landed safely and the crew and controllers both did a great job. Anyone have more info?

    So how are you supplementing your income?

    I play poker. I can play online or at nearby casinos on overnights. On off days I play at local casinos or go to Las Vegas. It takes a lot of study to become a high level player, but this year I will make more from poker than flying.

    Gulstream Intl. Airlines about to respond to accusations on CNN...

    Notice at 2:53 where he says there is no evidence that they changed the times "making a pilot illegal who would have otherwise been legal." They changed the times so that an illegal pilot would be legal. He was telling the truth. :laugh:

    New Skywest mins....

    Even if have relaxed the mins, they are still not hiring everyone who has 1000 hours who can fog a mirror. When I was hired in 2007, just over 50% were making it all the way through the interview process. I have a friend in ground school now, who tells me those numbers are about the same.
