what if you live in a crappy outstation base while working for a crappy regional, yet are sick, and are non-reving home or jumpseating to have your doctor look at you?

Just because you are not well enough to crew an aircraft doesn't mean you can't jumpseat home. Granted, you might not be well enough to fly, and some would take that as not well enough to jumpseat, but there is actually a difference between the two.

I'd face the music with this one. I think any reasonable person would see this matter for what it is. And that is what we are going for, right? What is reasonable?

"Go be an English teacher if you love grammer so much. Some of the richest people don't have college educations. You ever a see a rapper try to read and write? They have more money then your Embry Riddle degree and little RJ will ever make you. A college degree doesn't make you any smarter or better then the next person."


Never said and never will say I'm smarter or better than others. It ain't the way I work. I also never define success by the size of my WALLET (name that movie)!!!! Jay-Z and Fiddy and all those other folks--more power to 'em. And no, I'm not one of those 65K Skybus wannabes.

There are a good number of guys and gals on here have college educations and can't write or spell worth a lick. Odds are that they're infinitely smarter than me. There are also guys and gals with no college background who are infinitely smarter than me and are superior writers.

It's all about the presentation, man. To me, reading a well written post lends a helluva lot more credibility to that individual than to those who offer up the classic "Your an idiot."

I'm far from a mental wizard. I don't interview well and I'm bald and goofy, so I need all the help I can get in job searches and other facets of life. Being able to write somewhat comprehensively (although not necessarily entertaining) is one place where I can help myself.

Well said!

The person who wrote the earlier post would NEVER realize that some of the greatest minds in human history (and we benefits immensely from their inventions-hence an uneducated/illiterate rapper/sports star becomes millionaire, etc.) died penniless!

It's nothing to do with money. It's to do with education (knowledge, enlightenment, etc.)

Safe Flying!

At least the MD-80 has a cool nickname.

So, do you miss the simulated prop overspeed yet?

Good Memory! I must say.

Going back to the original questions, I say WHY LIE?

I hear a lot on this board how pilots think that the management 'lied' to them. So how come then pilots are always schemeing to see if they can get away with one?

Safe Flying!

Unfortunately, I'm old enough that I saw that movie in the theater and owned it on VCR tape (thats a relic, like a cassette... for you youngsters!)

I would specifically tell whomever I called into that I would be non-reving or jumpseating home because I was sick, and probably notify my union rep of the same.
