Fringe Benefit Tax Just took a quick look at the Tax Code and couldn't find an appropriate reference to the "transportation" being a taxable benefit. It didn't fit under the excluded / included fringe benefits that are taxable income. Anyone have a cite to the IRC that was utilized in this... -
jumpseating in uniform
TSA Opinions I was told that I was a passenger and subject to all the passenger requirements, in uniform w/ company id showing. Depends on the location you are trying to traverse. -
Good MD-10 Article
Research, please skiandsurf -- you really need to perform a little more research UAL lost a DC-10 in Chicago back in the 1970's for mx issues. It was a very unfortunate accident, claiming hundreds of lives. As for AA, Cali mean anything? Little Rock? Hasn't AA had 5 hull loses in the the... -

Anyone starting June 19th at Fed Ex?
Do not sweat the crashpad.... There are many, many crashpads available right now. There are postings in the training building as well as the AOC. Highly suggest getting your own room for training (approx $300-$350 per month) and then the usual crashpad thing. Great to see new people around! -

FedEx Poolie Calls
#3 This statement was reflective of only new-hires to the right seat out of ANC. As for total new hires remainder of this year -- it is a guess -- but probably more to begin June (to be released to the line so that the training for the awarded 727, Airbus, and MD-11 positions can begin)... -

FedEx Formal Interview
Movie Reference I believe that he is making a reference to a movie...... Didn't think any boys on this site ever saw a chick flick before :) -
hired after failing an airline training
The Truth Leaving a Major Airline to go to a Regional Airline (barring furlough) will raise questions with the interviewers due to the fact that it doesn't seem like a "natural progression." If the individual lies about the "reason for leaving" or the failed training event, that is grounds... -

Fedex MOAB is out
Classess I'll play. First two weeks of June make perfect sense. June 5th for the first class. As for straight to the right seat of the -11, I would guess neither in Memphis nor LAX. There are only 99 seats available in MEM and 21 in LAX. Now if it was Alaska, I would say that is very... -
Latest SWA interview Intel
1st Amedment Rights The 1st Amendment right regarding Free Speech is inapplicable in this situation. The Government cannot ban (State, Federal) but an employer can limit an individual's speech. Also, what you do AWAY from work is also having an impact on one's employment, i.e., Alaska... -
FEDEX MOAB Place your bets
Fyi Someone posted something about a "sick-out" being a legal work action. Better get your facts straight. ABX pilots had a case that went to the 6th Circuit and they were found guilty of an illegal work action (cannot find the site right now, but give me until after the 24th, and I'm all... -
Ord-Mdw
Transportation I've done both -- the bus and the El. I had the opportunity to start in MKE and took the bus to MDW, which stop at ORD ($25 or so). The El, I thought was 1.75, but hey, $2.00 is the same. I do not mind public transportation and you are not stuck with some crazy cab driver...- Lindy

Emerald Coast at Air Inc in Dallas
Be careful!! Albie, I would be very careful if I were you......... Promoting your wife will force you to work for a living, I see many, many hub turns in your future because everyone will not be utilizing your services......they will find that your wife's services are superior! -
Jumpseat to China?
Visa Requirements I would also look into whether or not a Visa is required to go to China. Being a jumpseater, you are not working the flight and entrance requirements are different. -
FedEx App Questions
it wasn't a slam, just a run-on sentence where is Tony C when you need him! -
FedEx App Questions
I do take phone calls..... You are too funny. I would have answered that one for you too! Anyway, furloughed is not a hindrance UNLESS you think that you will be returning to <legacy> airline. -
