Mesa's 900's

By the way, I believe you meant the conversion factor to be .002 and not .005.

That would make more sense since the standard lapse rate is a 2 degree Celsius decrease per 1,000 ft.

So, for KLAS:

15 - (2140 * .002) = 10.72

CRJ Limitation:

10.72 + 35 = 45.72

Your answer was right. Just the conversion factor needed to be changed.

Cheers,

Oops. .002 is the correct number.

(thus explaining why I fly a plane and do not teach basic math.)

I believe you started that race yourself by paying for an airline job. Whoever gladly plucks down $50G or however much it costs to go there in exchange for a "chance" at making $19/hour is not helping out the industry. If I plopped down $20 Grand to go to a Michael Jordan fantasy camp could I become a professional baskeball player, I hear they make good money.

Let me guess ...you got your license for free. I learned to fly in an old farm field and went to a few other schools for the rest of my certificates. I wish I plopped down the extra $ 8000 it would have cost so I could have gotten a seniority number and start getting payed about 4 years earlier than my hire date. By the way these guys doing this are making more than 19 hr as a Jet FO.

Mesa is currently at 19$ an hour for Turbo prop F/O and 21$ an hour for Jet F/O . Per diem is 1.18 Not too bad!

It's official:

Flights for the CRJ 200/900 being cancelled/delayed out of LAS past 3 days due to the heat. ISA +35 (45.7 in LAS, or 45, since that's the highest our dispatch software will go) is grounding these planes from about 1500 local until 1830 or so. . . . since the heat is at 46.7 or more . . .

And that's takeoff AND landing, so ya gotta beat the 1558 local ATIS if you don't want to divert (METAR specials not issued for temp).

And the LAS a/c doesen't work. So the pax get to sit in a hot, stuffy terminal and watch all the WN birds take off one after another while they miss their connections . . . .

Not that I think anyone should really care . . . but this IS on thread . . . .

So for a while those lame airplanes are parked in the desert like they should. Goodyear AZ sounds like a great place to park them for good!!
