NJA Cockpit Culture

[flagshipper]

this is one of the few beauties of the EFB at CS. You can play solitaire on it.

Come on, have you ever read the paper while flying?

No.

It is also prohibited in the FOM.

I monitor 121.5 like a hawk. There is always an airline captain out there making a nice speech over the frequency. The responses from other pilots are usually quite entertaining!

Ipod in Qc3 is the best along with the daily sudoku from the USA Today.

Do any NJ pilots know if there is a higher ranking or more points for current 91/135 pilots. Now that FedEx, UPS and SW have stopped hiring and with the new contract many regional guys are thinking about NJ. As far as time goes (for the most part) the 121 guys will have a lot more then a 91/135 guy over the same time period. Just wondering if there's a slight advantange or it's an even shot. Thanks.

Not quite sure about that one. But there is a special ranking for people who use Gross' picture as their avatar on flightinfo.

I'm pretty slow on that After Takeoff flow. It's got like, 3 items and that takes some serious concentration, so by the time I get it done, we're almost at destination anyways.

I just put a napkin over my lap and jerk it. Amazing how many times you can rub one out on the way to teb.

For those of you who work at NJA:

What do you guys do upfront to stay entertained. I've heard you fly with the door open, so you can't really read.

Another case of an MTV mind working in an NPR world.

WOW!!!!!!!

Who wants to play 20 questions?

There are plenty of NPR minds who read in flight.

 

[otto feather]

Speaking of NPR....podcasts on my iPod help pass the time.

So does my FO telling me how to fly the plane like he used to to in "heavies".

One thing I like about NJA is if it's flown someone here has flown it. Lot's of variety. Lot's of stories

ADD airline punks. "Three hours in a cockpit without my Game Boy! Why not just make me pull my fingernails out with tweezers?"

 

[Dassault]

My guess is that the flight attendant aircraft have a fair amount of reading in the cockpit, but that is just a guess since I'm not on any of those.

You are correct sir.
