We have ETOPS, Sacka. You don't. Neither does Allegiant. They were supposed to be flying 757s to Hawai'i LAST summer. Oh well...
 
You made a statement accusing Southwest of having poor maintenance. You want to go down that path you ignorant pri&@k? Go ahead. I have my NTSB links detailing accidents attributable to airline maintenance. Don't see Southwest on it. Do you?

You sure are a cranky old bag.
 
SWA loses $130M in the 3Q and you guys think the God King will make the investment required to get ETOPS certification?

Maybe if you give him a huge pay cut.

Until that happens, enjoy your ROC, TUL and LBB layovers.

As usual, post the truth and the only response: "You're a HATER!"

What a bunch of crybabies.

Well, geez, Fubi. EVERYONE knows you're a SWA hater. Literally everyone. That's not the issue. He just asked why, and you dodged the question with another pejorative. How about actually answering? Why?

No, I've answered it...its the gross arrogance of some of the posters here. Again, I don't hate SWA. I can't stand the SWA egos on parade here.

I revel in any chance I get to deflate your little balloons. Call me crazy....
 
Yes, they will have printers. Flt plan formats already being tailored for them.


Will they be CPDLC equipped ? Why don't they use the AirTran system for the flight planning ? It's already set up for ETP's etc.

I believe so.

Air Tran uses Sabre for flight planning and while it is capable of Intl planning, it doesn't do it well. It's a very labor-intensive process to compute an Intl plan.

SWA's system is being replaced by a Jepp system since our current one can't handle Intl, ETOPS, or even multi-fleet. So, I'm sure the AT folks will be happy to dump Sabre.

Uh oh. You mean we can't just gas it up, get direct Honolulu and flirt with LT on the ACARS for 6 hours?

I've got a steep learning curve ahead of me!

What? The "schedule" is slipping? Say it ain't so!

Not now you can't, except for ACARS Picture time with LT. ;). Yeah, the full system won't even be rolled out when we have to start table top exercises for ETOPS.
 
There should be an annual award for the most obnoxious poster on FI. Sort of like the Oscar Awards. Instead of a statue there should be like a gold toilet seat . Any other ideas?
