News Flash - Pinnacle Requests Type IV in August

[kmox29]

Jeez, do we know how to party or what!?! Anyone remember the crew in Iowa gettin naked in the hot tub and then running around the hotel shootin' off fire extinguishers? Good times man...good times.

We got a new hotel outta that one

 

[1.3XVso]

when each dispatcher is working 25 flights at a time, it is pretty hard to keep track of everything that is going on.

why can pinnacle pilots not think for themselves? atc tells you to turn leaving dca and you say "no i need to stay on this heading." two violations in one day. that is something to be proud of.

can the captains over there make logical decisions instead of acting like robots?

CELL CALL! you're an idiot!

Its SELCAL!! But your right we do have some capt americas but over all alot of good peeps with logical decisions. Hey RTHOMPSON what sup with the scheduals! They *************************in suck!

 

[Inconceivable]

and once, you even had an FO stow away in the lav out of SFO.....

which category was he?

 

[jackbo]

Interesting, I didn't know that they installed a cellular telephone in the CRJ cockpit. I learn many things by reading this board...

Maybe Pinnacle had cell phones installed on all A/C so we could call up the hotel on overnights to make sure there are no drunk Mesaba pilots running around yelling, knocking on doors and throwing patio furniture. If I know ahead of time, I will be more alert and can duck when a flying patio chair comes flying towards me by a wasted Mesaba pilot.

wow. i didn’t know how to spell it correctly. i must be as dumb as most of your pilots. you busted me on that one. thanks for watching out for me.

you could call to ask if there are any drunk mesaba pilots, or you could call dispatch (if they answer) and ask if the plane will be there in the morning or if it crashed while being repo-ed.

maybe the repo crew can take it all the way to 410 like smiling paul and brag about how small the speed snake is, and then take a picture of it complete with the wrong altimeter setting and post it on the internet.

yep. you guys are as safe as anyone out there.

 

[TA/RA]

Jackbo,

That was over the line.

 

[Inconceivable]

heh. maybe the one blue eye and one green eye cancelled it out and he couldn't see that!

 

[405]

Maybe I should have spelled it out in my post, type SIX. That was the joke. You're right, my second post was flamebait. The original was a first hand account. But I'll cut you some slack, it was late and Roman numerals are compicated. I don't blame you, rather the Memphis pulic education system. Also, if anti-ice fluid is part of a MEL for a inop window heat controller/wing anti-ice system, then this thing really does belong in Canada..........ehhhh?

Back to the original post now.

xjjetdog, you're completely full of sh*t.

 

[Dodge]

That's pretty f'ing sad that a professional rj pilot can't perform a simple task such as setting an altimeter, and then is dumb enough to document his incompetence.

 

[Towelie]

Jackbo,

That was over the line.

This whole thread is over the line.

I think the idiots from XJ and 9E stirring the pot on this thread, and this board, should be ashamed. This started as flamebait, obviously. But it was further lowered into the sewer by the 9E people who felt the need to make all of the Brainerd comments. The 3701 comment was a new low, although not completely unprovoked.

Somewhere I bet the management "whipsaw master" is laughing like Dr. Evil right now.

Aren't we on the same team, fellas?

Not related to the flamebait on this thread... is this Paul guy for real???

That photo is a little odd. My question is why would you want a photo bragging about being at FL410 post-Jefferson City?

Just my two cents worth.

 

[405]

What's worse is that the entire sequence as the original post states never happened. xjjet is lying. It's that simple.

Then later in the thread and right on schedule, the usual anti-9E dummies emerge from under their respective rocks and start bashing 9E for past events. Great job, mofos.

I'm just waiting for the next BS 9E thread to start from some other disgruntled idiot.

 

[Mesabi Miner]

Man, I need a beer after reading this thread... When the he11 is my showtime again? Ah, I remember the rule. No smoking 12 hours before show and no drinking 50 feet from the aircraft... Bartender! Another round please!

Sincerely,

MM

HAHA 29.85!?! What a dousche..... and yeah he's based in MSP. But I never see him smile.

Especially if it was taken post-3701.

Be a big boy, and tell the above in a DTS/MEM/MSP crewroom...

The really sad thing is that the altimeter setting will start flashing passing through FL180. It's pretty hard to miss.

 

[Rook]

hehehehe......That was a grand slam comeback....I usually don't chime in on 9E vs. XJ tennis match, but this come back was out of the park.....LOL

before you get flamed by my bretherens at Mesaba the Avro Captain event was a different situation in Grand Forks. The patio furniture was just the BRD event.

Simon buddy I know the feeling. I was just referring to Xjjetdog's profile. Saw the SF3/146 types and figured he was a relatively senior CA. Hope all is well in XJ land.

I recently finished my simulator training for Northwest Airlink where I’ll be flying a Canadair Regional Jet, which is just a bit smaller than an Airbus

The training took place out in Wilmington, Delaware. When we were done with training we got on the plane in Philadelphia to go back to Memphis and get our ID badges, which is what we’d been working toward for two months. After my simulator partner, Nick, and I had already sat down, the lead flight attendant came up to us, asked if we were the two pilots from Northwest Airlink, we said “yes” and then he said, “The Captain would like to welcome you guys up front.” Since I’ve never had a job where I was able to jump seat with the airlines I was pretty excited to be invited up to the cockpit! The jump seat is an extra seat in the cockpit for another pilot to sit in. I was sitting in the window seat, Nick was sitting in the aisle seat, and our examiner, Greg, was sitting a couple rows in front of us. As soon as I heard that we were invited up front, I jumped over Nick, and walked as fast as I could to the cockpit (Nick says it looked more like a slow run but I disagree).


When I got up to the cockpit door of the Airbus, the First Officer was standing there, and had a somewhat confused look on his face when I came racing up there. He asked me, “Can I help you sir?” I said, “The Captain wants to see me!” I burst through the cockpit door, tapped the Captain on the shoulder and said, “Sir, I heard you wanted to see me.” He looked just as confused as the First Officer and said, “Who are you?!” Just as he said that, I looked back at Nick and Greg, as they were taking their seats in first class. I then realized that when the flight attendant said that we were welcome up front, he meant first class, and not the cockpit. Maybe I’m not quite ready for an Airbus yet but when I am, at least I’ll know the way to the cockpit

This guy is kinda funny (in a sad sense). Kinda makes me want to lose my Arby's 5 for $5.95 that I had for dinner.

All must see.

 

[Rook]

Ok I know the site is cheezy, but the guy is a friend of mine (don't feel sorry for me) and I gotta stick up for my boy. But at the same time, what you put on the net gives everyone a free shot.

 

[405]

It would be nice if everyone got excited about a job like this guy did.

All I can say is good luck. Run with it and never look back.
