I really find it hard to believe what I've just read - you can take beer from the plANE????

Whoa hold on a second here, let me get something straight here.....................was he wearing his hat when all this happened?

 

[ProFracPilot]

The days of crew members drinking while in ANY company capacity (read company capacity as: who is paying for your hotel room?) will be over during this decade...guaranteed.

The FAR's will have to change first. Rest is considered "free from all present responsibility to the company". I show up for duty on time and sober, what I do with my rest time is my business.

pilot contacts are often more restrictive than the FARs.

some airline contracts prohibit booze 12 hours prior to show.

Alaska Airlines prohibits booze on the same calender day as your duty day. Example, you get to your overnite at 11pm, and have a show the following nite at 10pm. You have to stop drinking at midnite, even though you are 22 hours prior to show.

She slept for 2 days? Had nothing to do with jetlag, I am sure.

You beat me to it. Normally people who are anxious or worried about something don't sleep for two days straight.

I was thinking the same thing also, what a crock of sh!t this lady has cooked up.

But General said that he/she gets to go to far-off lands drinking and eating local beer and food? Sounds like these Delta boys fly 10,000 miles away to drink stolen Miller Light? They probably were eating left-over McDonalds from the KATL.

BTW, how many days a month does a Reserve Delta pilot get off?

Is SWA's long call 12 hours?
