  1. That’s another way to counteract torque and p-factor. Rudder input is just too much work.
  2. Why are people in such a hurry to board a plane with assigned seats? Turns out you sit in the same spot whether you’re the first one or the last one to walk down the jet bridge. Now SWA is a different story...
  3. Duck, you're feeding the troll, bro. This type of discussion (heavy vs. fighter) is just like the mil vs. civ discussion that pops up over on APC once every 2 or 3 days. No one ever wins this argument.
  4. Jesus, boys! Same team!
  5. Promotion by attrition. I'm banking on it.
  6. Good. I hope they boot her ass out as well.
  7. You're using High Life for those beermosas, right? The champagne of beers is the only way to do it.
  8. Rough couple of days. Looks like the Corps lost a 53. https://www.stripes.com/news/us/4-feared-dead-in-marine-heavy-lift-helicopter-crash-in-california-1.520316
  9. They're probably just having difficulty divvying up the 179/365s amongst the new selects.
  10. If it’s not on JQP then it’s fake news.
  11. Cleaning rotaters is the #1 mission of the 8EAMS? I would have sworn it was sleeping on the sidewall seats while red X’s were left unattended.
  12. ^ This needs its own thread! Very comprehensive and sound advice. Like he said, wipe out the debt and plus up the savings account. It takes a few paychecks into your second year at an airline before you start to feel comfortable again. Oh yeah, and fuck TAPS. I’m an adult. Let me opt out.
  13. Yup, just what the brain trust at AMC needs. More white jets to let them spread their “all is well” message to the masses. Sorry, I have no useful information for you. Just been burning pay periods at the unit, so I’m balls-deep in the stupidity.
  14. https://dfw.cbslocal.com/2018/02/28/gorilla-statue-removed-after-complaints-it-was-racially-insensitive/ I fear for our society.
  15. The use of the word “pause” pisses me off. You GROUNDED the fleet. I know that word sends the wrong message to the public, but the message you are sending to your IP’s and students is one of obfuscation and sugar-coating. When bad shit happens to an airplane or pilot, you GROUND it. Just call a spade a spade for Christ sake. These mind games from our senior managers are becoming transparent and tiring.
  16. Serious questions since I’ve been out of UPT for 12 years now - but do you guys run ORM before each T-6 sortie, or is that some bullshit only the MAF does? Based on what I’m reading here, I could easily come up with enough points to drive my ORM approval up to a level just shy of the SecDef.
  17. As soon as I blow some tires on the 73 I’ll post it... pending the NTSB investigation.
  18. My biggest concern is that these "lower quality studs" will be my FO in a 737 in about 12 years (or less when the next VSP happens).
  19. Funny... not a single $ in any of those COA slides. Good luck competing with the airlines.
  20. Yes. Publish now and don’t forget to factor in terminal leave.
  21. I just do it because it’s a good way to kill 1.5 seconds of a 5 hour transcon.
