Also, premium flying opportunities (flying on days off, paying 1.5x or 2x) are typically awarded in seniority order. If you’re a senior F/O with few pilots ahead of you, you’re going to have your choice of sweet “green slips,” as we call them at my carrier, as opposed to a junior captain

OMG, the people on the Ring App. Just now: “did anyone just hear tornado sirens, was that testing?!” It’s clear and 41°, and nary a thunderstorm within 500 miles of here. But maybe you should go to your “safe place.” (Tornado sirens get tested here the first Saturday of every month at 1300 CT)

This is an insane ride…quite literally!

I can confidently say I’ve never had it open in a tab, for any reason

An AI generated multiplication table with mostly erroneous entries

If it’s anything like this Microsoft Copilot-generated multiplication table, we will be in great shape! /s

The one time I diverted to have a passenger removed, it was for this. She was under the influence of something, as she had exhibited psychotic behavior during the flight. While talking to the agent about our paperwork for the remainder of our flight, I overheard her tell LEOs that she had no ID 😳

This is really impressive. To have such a successful outcome on the first use of this system is a tribute to those who designed it. What a game changer!

Hauenstein will be missed, but I was always impressed with Esposito every time I heard him speak

Nice to be away from the lights!

Yes, clearly things snowballed very quickly. Hopefully, the FDR/CVR will have some clues

Consider that it wouldn’t take a *complete* loss of thrust on #2 or #3 to make the jet unable to fly. FOD damage to the MLG tires earlier in the takeoff roll could’ve also compromised acceleration such that they didn’t really have adequate speed, or took longer to get to Vr

This is Chad, majoring in Business Management (because Chad Dad told him to). He’s nursing a hangover, trying to figure out how to nail that one blonde Pi Phi from the house across the street, and has a paper due today that he hasn’t started. He’s never going to work a backhoe or lay a brick.

Too many movies

Seems to have come a long way since lukewarm coffee and stale popcorn

Incatpacitation is real

Maybe make the same suggestion to the Republican Representative from Maryland—a US Navy veteran—who posted pictures of naval vessels from India in his congratulatory message. This is a snarky allusion to that

Don’t know about the A300, but the 767 can exhibit a significant nose-up tendency when the ground/flight spoilers deploy on touchdown. That, plus control inputs intended to arrest the sink rate for the second contact, could’ve easily led to a tail strike.

Speaking of OW and Abbey Road, I was fortunate to be in the room a few weeks ago for a test where they sent 32 tracks of 24/48 audio from AR to OW via public Internet, where it was mixed and sent back with very low latency

Ah, that’s gorgeous. I look forward to listening to the whole thing. I’ve wanted a 251 for a long time, but couldn’t justify it.
