Oct 13th!!!

I got the call and will be going to Class on the 13th of this month!
Everyone is really great up in ATW and I am so excited to get out from under the US Airways WO debacle. The gouge from me will be up soon on the interview site. Current gouge is very acurate. The best advice I can offer is be yourself. They are not overly technical, just want to see if you'll fit in to the group. And practice the sim the night before I was the only one out of my group that did and I was the only one hired.

I guess I'll have to change my ID to DASHDRIVER NOMORE!!

Regards

DD

Congrats... I guess the only question now is if you CAN change your ID!

In europe, where they do many
strange things turbine engines
(thrust and shaft both) are rated
in kilowatts, which is a power
measurement. They do that because
kilograms are a mass unit and it
would be incorrect to say kilograms
of thrust...could say newtons.

Pounds are a force unit, and forces
can do work (work is a force applied
over a distance, power is the rate
work is done at). I think the english
foot/lb system mass unit is a "stone",
but not sure. weight is the measure-
ment mass being acted on by gravity,
that's why in space you are weightless,
but not mass-less.

Anyone want to get more confused?
Just give the word!!!
