Sounds like you COULD be the guy we NEED to go regularly to Grand Forks, Bismark, and Flint. There is some NASTY weather out there too.



Bye Bye---General Lee

Let's see - GFK, BIS, FNT. Yup, yup, yup. SIT, JNU, ADQ. . .yup, yup, yup.

I've done all of those, an no, there is no comparison. I know you won't, but I'll say it anyway: Stop being such a troll.

:rolleyes:

I didn't read that the same way you did. General Lee stated since the other guy was so good at cold wx ops and wind, he might also be good in Bismark or wherever. If you guys do merge, some of you may have to do that.

Does ALK fly to Quito? Anywhere in S. America? Africa? Some challenging flying at every airline...not just SE AK!
 
Unfortunately it only takes one guy being a jerk about an almost sure to not happen SLI to make a lot of other DL guys look like jerks. From another DL guy, thanks Alaska guys and girls for all the friendly jumpseats. You are a class operation.

Don't worry...we all know. I have had nothing but fantastic experiences on the Delta jumpseat...it's too long a story for this thread but one of your crews used their break during a quick turn in LAS and called the duty chief pilot and the DAL/ALPA J/S coordinator to settle a dispute that arrised between me, another jumpseater, and the gate agent. Most crews would not have done that. I was very impressed and appreciative.

Anyway, I am sure if I met GL on a jumpseat I am sure he would seem like a fine gentleman. It's amazing how much some people change when they can hide behind an anonymous pseudonym.

Sure I am a nice guy to any jumpseater. As far as hiding behind an anonymous pseudonym, this is an anonymous board. If you want to post your real name, go ahead. Doesn't mean I have to. Some people on here can't handle the truth, and I am here to deliver it. I am also here to provide FREE comedy, and some people on here are intelligent enough to understand it. I am the "Lewis Black" of FI. Don't know him? Look it up.

Bye Bye---General Lee

Diplomas on the wall, framed pictures in front of all the airplanes you have flown, models of same airplanes, engraved pilots license from sporty's . Framed kudos letter from airline. Old hats from all past airlines.......

Look at your name on here. Does that describe what you look like? How about a part of you? That is gross. Don't tell anyone about that...... That is something I would NOT brag about....

Wow, for a guy that fancies himself as FI's Lewis Black, you either have no sense of humor or no knowledge of advance navigation displays. Allow me to educate. Pilots use the term "green banana" when referencing the Altitude Range Arc on FMC based navigation display. It is the predicted point you will reach your MCP altitude based on present vertical speed.

I know it is a little advanced aviation humor, but you will catch on!

I don't think we call it the "green banana", but if you think everything revolves around you guys, then great. I have never heard of that term, even when I was flying the 737-800 myself. I think we called it the "green arc." What do you call the "trend vector" on the PFD? The "tiny wang?" Keep coming up with cute names, you have a nack for it.


Bye Bye--General Lee

GB, I think herein lies the problem.

Wow, that was funny. That will all change when your airline is merged with a larger one. Get used to "Green Arc" from now on....

GL, a few thousand posts ago, you might have been funny or informative, or something, but now . . . you just want to spread strife.

Sad.
 
We call it the "noodle", as in "put your noodle on the purple line".

My favorite was a story of a female F/O who once said to her Captain, "Bring it down, bring it up, make it big, make it purple and give it to me!" Such sweet poetry.
 
This thread has officially drifted! Back to the original topic, are we or are we not getting new uniforms, before I buy new pants for the one we have now?
