    367 in TPA

    What happened here? Rumor is they lost pitch control for a moment. It was recently. Just not sure what day.

    121.438 (b) - 75 hours of what?

    Let's start with the reg: I don't care about the exemptions 1-3. What I care about is the weird wording that leaves a lot of ambiguity. Specifically; "...either the pilot in command or the second in command has at least 75 hours of line operating flight time, either as pilot in command or...

    Word on the street about flex decertification effort...

    I don't see FLOPS keeping pilots or attracting new pilots either way.

    Kenn Ricci's big middle finger to his pilots

    You do realize that there are literally hundreds of better paying part 91 jobs out there? Go! Flex/FLOPS is a sinking ship. Don't bitch about the hole in the ship. Leave! Light jet captains are getting $120+ TO START. So if you are a Phenom, X, Legacy or whatever you can find a job for more than...

    The Red Label pilot, and the Line pilot

    Seems to me that Red Label could be used as evidence that One Sky can afford to pay everyone a better wage. They raised the bar, pull everyone up to it. Use it against them.

    Are training contracts enforceable?

    Above response aside, the short answer is yes. A contract is enforceable, regardless of what you may have heard. What varies from state to state is the tools available to the employer to recover funds owed by the contractor (you). In Texas, for example, the tools available to a plaintiff to...

    Landing mins

    You only have to have the minimums to land, not to accept the approach under 91. FAR 135/121 have to have the minimums to start the approach.

    Come on Delta! This is ridiculous!

    That can happen to anyone. Brake action good on landing and then the taxi way is nothing but ice. I taxi'd in at DFW and the ramp was not navigable but the taxi ways and runways were dry. If I hadn't had props, I might have dinged some metal. It didn't help that it was at night and the...

    FAA Needs to Adopt New Safety Measures to Prevent Future Airline Crashes!

    117.666 No operator shall assign, and no Imam shall accept, a live animal sacrifice unless: (a)The operator has documented proof that the animal has been raised in a cage free environment (b)The operator has documented proof that the animal is free of antibiotics (c)The Imam has 10 hours of...

    Mark your calendars!

    Maybe if you stopped calling them dbags it might help.

    Mark your calendars!

    You guys have a choice. You can continue to trash each other and make enemies of people who should be allies or you can put the past aside and concentrate on a common goal for the future. I doubt the former will make your lives better than the later option.

    What are the competitive qualifications for interviews?

    AINonline: Flexjet Adds Embraer Legacy 450 to Fractional Fleet

    And you just lost your contract negotiations. Nice job. If you want them on your side, work for them and not against them.

    FLOPS furlough another 24

    Everyone at FO and Flex should know what is coming. Union busting strategies are not unpublished. Did you expect a furlough? You should have. I'd expect another one, probably about a month before sitting down and really hitting the negotiations. Expect another one as negotiations draw to a...

    OPT362 overrun KSGR

    No. They say: (FOL505-018/14) To rephrase, use wet if the runway is grooved and the rain is light or ended. Use standing water for everything else. Embraer never says wet is wet. Who told you that? Unless the runway is grooved, it is impossible for it to be actively raining and have less than...

    OPT362 overrun KSGR

    FYI - The POH has much longer landing distances for standing water than APG or the QRH. Always check the POH for anything other than dry runways and NEVER use wet numbers.

    Despite union opposition, Flight Options moved forward...

    I don't know what a VUH is, I'm not with FO. My point is, and always has been, that it isn't the best strategy to put the union in a position to be perceived as against the membership. I'm not saying get rid of the union or be anti-union. I'm saying this was a bad move.

    Despite union opposition, Flight Options moved forward...

    Why the hell would you go non-union? That would be utterly stupid. But, you may end up there if the pilots see the union as more harmful than the company.

    Despite union opposition, Flight Options moved forward...

    In most areas, that is absolutely correct. But, this is a situation where there will be separations. Some people are willing to leave and not come back while others would like to keep their jobs. If the company is willing to offer a bonus to get as many people as possible what they want, why...
