What kind of flashlight would you recommend for preflights?

I get it but, that's about three terminators per week, lights on coming down the jetway so its on five minutes per? 15 a week, hour per month, 6 hours burn time in 6 months?

My fault, I didn't realize you did post flights. I figured the ground crew did those.

Ground crew? SWA has ground crew?

Become a captain and you don't need to do walk arounds.

Best post award for 2014, that's thinking outside the box.

Pelican products makes a double C cell molded plastic one with a clip. It's on the FAA approved list, lifetime unconditional guarantee and it's 100% waterproof. It doubles as my diving light/lobster tracker. I don't know what kind of bulb it is, but it's really bright.

It's on the FAA approved list,

[freightdogfred]

It was circulated on the union web board a while back, they shut it down so...

I will tell you more, it must have been a union-supplied list. Thanks for "Keeping it real"
