    Looking for an old Politically Incorrect UAL poem

    Yep, that's it. I have it saved from years ago but User 912 never responded to my PM request in post #6. When I first read it years ago it struck a nerve with me. In the mid/late 80's I was at a "commuter" (as they were called then) trying hard to get the big major job. I was a Capt on the...

    just flew a 3-day with "special radio voice guy"...

    I was flying with a crusty Capt. years ago who told me a story of when Delta first started flying over the pond (At the end of the era where the only flag carriers were Pan Am and TWA). This Capt. swore this was true: The Delta was being yelled at for starting the crossing without a oceanic...

    Any former TWA's recalls in that photo?

    Germanwings plane crashed intentionally by F/O

    Yes! Most of the time. Look at post #87: >> We mitigate risks in our business, we cannot always eliminate them, lest you'll never leave the gate.<< To expand on my post #88: The F/A's recurrent training will have some additional stuff. My guesses: While in the cockpit you will notice the...

    Germanwings plane crashed intentionally by F/O

    Spaulding, that is a good analysis, pretty much how I look at it. The post 9/11 door system is well designed and I don't think they should mess with it. ALL the carriers should adopt the "always two in the cockpit" rule and be done with it. At the Flt. Attn recurrent training they'll have a...

    Jb is a cult

    I'm not sure I'd want to use the Bar in a place like that.

    TransAsia ATR 72 in river

    Lost an engine, got below Vmca and over it went. It will be interesting to know what it's T/O weight was and if they had accurate numbers.

    Ten dollars? I thought the internet was free!

    AA 767 burst tires.

    I have to wonder if the crew even knew about this. I'm sure he had a talk with the chief pilot soon after!

    The Ghost of (Eastern) flight 401

    The narrator of that video for the Travel Ch kept saying "The Captain and Flight Engineer." He never mentioned the First Officer. I think he forgot or didn't know this was a 3 person airplane.

    ATL Ramp

    Actually, running on the ramp is not a good idea.

    Alaska & DUI

    I was the Capt on a MD-80 L/O in Toronto, 2006 I think. Short L/O (12 hours) so we just want to get to the hotel. All of us, except one, are done and waiting. One male F/A was "stuck" back in customs. After a few minutes I went back to find out what the holdup was. Turns out he had a DUI in...

    No, No! You have to to sit IN the black boxes!

    Carl Icahn investigated for insider trading

    A bunch of us former TWA guys will be watching this. Maybe we'll even show up in the court room! And smile at him.

    Malaysian 777 enroute to Beijing missing!

    That's a pretty good guess. Close to what I am thinking. And to anybody all upset about speculating, it's getting to the point if they don't find more than a few scraps floating, that there will have to be some guessing on what happened so we can TRY to learn something from all this. Remember...

    Goodbye usapa!!!!!!

    That sounds like APA to me! That's what we observed in 2001/2002. :uzi:

    Overcoming internet forum addiction

    I think one clue to Forum addiction is to write a post as long as a novel that nobody will read!

    Asiana 777 crashed on landing at SFO

    Now a legal mess! The coroner said she died when the trucks hit her. The city said she didn't have her seat belt buckled and she died hitting the ground!
