    American hiring this summer yes or no?

    As of yesterday, it was announced that AA had gotten through the last of the recalls in the 6/19 class. Are they still filling that class?

    AA Recalls

    Not true. APA came up with a plan to limit displacements to 125, but give unlimited new vacancies to APA. At the time we were still taking deliveries, so it would have represented a significant overall increase in the number of flowbacks. Furthermore, it was never offered to the Eagle MEC...

    boss' misuse of ATC

    Actually, it's surprisingly more common than you think. Just a few days ago the ground controllers at Cedar Rapids called us as we were approaching the runway, telling us to call operations. A passenger on our inbound flight thought they had left something on the airplane and wanted our FA to...

    Difficult Airports

    I know exactly who you are talking about. Older guy, precedes every transmission with a lengthly "AAAAhhhhhmmmmmm", likes you to report at really odd distances "Report 4 and 3/4 mile final", and a typical scenario goes something like this.... "Cessna 12345 turn base, cleared to land" (5...

    Regional jets appear on endangered species list

    Up to 200 out of 1600 will go to desert storage in the next few years. That's like 12%. Endangered seems a little overdramatic. LAXSaabdude.

    CRJ: Out of Production-Boyd

    Sigh... If you can come up with the answer to that one, please go over to http://www.eaglelounge.com and explain it to them! There is a group over there that is just convinced that everything will be juuuuust peachy if we sh!tcan all of our CRJ700s and get E-170s instead. Mention the fact...

    Wierd Capt / FO / FE

    Just remembered one I flew with a while back, and one I just heard about. Both had some weird opinions about how the ACARS works. On the ACARS printer there is a light that says "PRINTER BUSY". When the message is done printing, the light will flash, alerting you to tear off your message...

    SPS is Spreading!

    Take a look at his avatar, that should give you some idea (minus the double vision). Or, if you're still not sure, just Google it! LAXSaabdude.

    Flying to Canadia?

    He messed up the original quote. I'ts flapping heads, actually. Yeah, but then you'd be left with American beer to drink!:puke: Terence and Phillip, the original Flappng-Headed Beady-Eyed Canadians! LAXSaabdude (wearing my Roots shirt as I am typing this, really!)

    Wierd Capt / FO / FE

    Holy crap! I was thinking of posting on this thread, but in 2 posts, you guys have already annihilated any weirdness I could possibly come up with! Makes me thankful I haven't flown with anyone like that! LAXSaabdude.

    ALPA question

    Exactly. A lot of airlines are "agency shop" where you have to pay dues to whatever union is on the property. Since you are paying, you may as well join and get the services available. A lot of people bitch about ALPA and how they are ineffective in dealing with contract negotiations, a...

    When to start looking ahead to the ATP stage?

    When I did mine 11 years ago, you coudn't even take the written until you had the ATP hours met and 1st class medical in hand. Then you had to go to the FSDO to get your logbooks checked over, and written authorization from the FAA to take the test. Is that still the case? LAXSaabdude.

    Help, I need 100 hrs.

    Now when you applied for this job, did you tell them initially that you were short of hours? What was on your resume? Why did they offer you a position knowing that you may not be ready when they put you in ground school? Maybe we just need some more information, but something doesn't sound...

    Bd-5j

    Guess that explains why James Bond was only able to fly just long enough to escape the Cuban (or whatever) soldiers before he had to dead stick onto a rural road and coast into a gas station! Who says movies never get it right?!;) LAXSaabdude.
