    Logging of PIC/SIC time

    We very seldom fly with other captains as we have FO's, but maybe a few times a year we fly with another captain. Our manual addresses this as follows: One pilot qualified as a pilot‐in‐command must be designated as Commander for a particular flight or series of flights. If 2 captains are...

    FATCA Issues?

    No issues here either... YET. However, a growing number of banks are limiting or closing US citizens' accounts because they don't want to deal with FATCA nonsense. Imagine if Mexican tax authorities passed this law and required say Bank of America and Wells Fargo to report all Mexican citizen...

    Negotiating a Contract

    Remember, everything in negotiation is give and take. You don't give them your minimum, you give them your entire wishlist plus 25%... and you don't present this to them as an ultimatum, but just as a proposal to be negotiated. You also need to be prepared for them to completely reject...

    Dubai to allow Rents to jump as much as 20%----article

    Thank you General. Now to answer your question about FAR 117, and CAP 371... check this out: http://www.caa.co.uk/docs/33/CAP371.PDF This is the set of duty time/rest rules UAE certificate holders operate under and have been long before FAR 117 came about... Given what I've seen from FAR 117...

    Dubai to allow Rents to jump as much as 20%----article

    General, you have some very valid points, and you are way off on others. For example, yes, many of us would love to come back home. I will come home when my kids are done with college (3-4 years) from now, debt-free with my house paid off. Couldn't have done it in the US. As for getting in...

    You mean we don't get any WARN money or accrued sick leave or accrued vacation from our previous airline that went under??!? ;)

    Motley Fool analyst looks at possibility of ME Carriers "Crushing" US Carriers

    That's just it - for ME carriers, and in this I include Turkish, it's all about location, location, location. I think Delta or really any legacy US airline partering up with a ME carrier would be a wise move. I agree that EK is probably too big and too developed, but EY is actively establishing...

    Interview questions

    If it's a publicly traded company, I'd go in knowing what the company does, how the stock has been doing, who the main players were, who their competition is in the market place, etc. I'd show up prepared as much as possible, but some things you just might not be able to find out. I'd ask them...

    UAL Quietly Raises Reservation Change Fees By $50 to $200!

    Andy, my definition of value is not exclusively measured in dollars. Lets see... airline travel is anything but low-cost these days. Clearly, if something comes up or changes, you get gouged in fees. Taking a bag? Pay a fee... Want different time? Pay a fee. Want a stale airline sandwich? Pay...

    ALPA on Emirates and Etihad

    General, the trouble is that US carriers should *LEAD* the industry worldwide... not celebrate catching up. I truly hope that US airlines do something innovative to knock the rest of the world on their collective a$$es. We pioneered this industry and then fell asleep at the wheel, turning it...
