    AA negotiators kick a pilot anthill

    This is absolutely correct. At CAL every summer we've been short staffed. What happens is a term called splat. PBS will build lines from top to bottom. When it runs out of pilots and still has pairings left over it goes back up throwing random crap pairings onto peoples lines. At CAL the...

    Question regarding smoke in cabin

    The passenger oxygen masks have re-breather bags that mix ambient air. If there is smoke in the cabin then it mixes with the oxygen the passenger is breathing doing more harm than good. Plus what another poster said about not adding more oxygen to the fire in the cabin.

    Aborting a T/O

    Just a question. At CAL we use the term "Reject" instead of "Abort" at my previous airline. I still have the hardest time saying "Reject". What other airlines use "Reject" instead of "Abort"?

    Continental Actually furoughs.. this sucks

    From my understanding they wanted us to allow them to do revenue sharing with United and Luftansa Airlines as part of our new Star Alliance membership. The alliance doesn't take effect for another year so I don't think they are in any hurry. The hurry was to get the LOA passed before the...

    Question about Mode S Transponders.

    I fly the 757/767 for Continental and we have been told in training that the air traffic controllers out of London can see what altitude we set in our MCP (Mode Control Panel for the autopilot and flight director) via the Mode S transponder. Is this correct or has someone at our company been...

    Automation: Boeing vs. Airbus

    Can anyone comment on the 777 vs the A330? I know they are different beasts but they both have fly by wire.

    757 vs 737 at CAL

    I didn't get the choice in my new hire class. I got 756 EWR and wanted 737 IAH but I have a 2 year seat lock if I want to go to the 737. I couldn't get IAH for 19 months if I wanted it on the 756. EWR 757/767 flying is much different than anything you've ever done before, at least that's how...

    ?? for those that have flown major dom and intl.

    I just got back from a Newark-Honolulu-Newark 3-day. 10.5 over and 9.5 back. I'm totally exhausted and flying for a long time gets boring, but the layovers are great. It's hard to complain when you're sitting on the beach in Waikiki enjoying the sun. There are advantages and disadvantages to...

    Europe (International) Flying???

    Here are some differences: Cleared Direct XYZ is said "Route Direct XYZ" FL100, FL200, FL300 is often referred to as Flight Level 1 hundred, 2 hundred, 3 hundred. Position and hold is "Line up and wait" or just "Line Up" Taxi to runway 22 is "taxi holding point 22" Taxi to gate 15 is "taxi...

    Should my buddy leave CAL for UPS?

    Please let me debunk the myth that only cargo carriers do all that night flying. I just got back from a 3-day Paris on the 767. On Monday night we took off from EWR at 100 pm and landed around 4:30 am (eastern time). We got to the hotel around 6:30 am (eastern time) and I napped for 3 hours...

    CAL Class

    Sorry to say this but the senior CAL pilots have never flown RJs and truly have no clue. Most of the captains I fly with are nice guys but think the RJs are barbie jets and don't realize that most of the avionics are nicer than the Boeings. Just swallow your pride when you come over to work...

    CAL Class

    I was hired in Jan (756 EWR) and have been holding a line since May with just one month on reserve in April. I think I got lucky though.

    PAX vs Freight

    I want to correct some misinformation that pax flying is mostly daytime. I'm new with Continental on the 757/767 flying 90% to Europe. We leave Newark around 700-900 pm arriving over there around 300-400 am Eastern time. We lay over for 24 hours. That means the next day we get up around...

    1800 Ual List

    I've been trying to list on United for a flight today but the 1800 UAL List number just keeps hanging up on me. I tried to call their normal reservations number and got an agent in India who insisted it was working wouldn't list me. Does anyone else have a number? Thanks.
