Interesting Emirates flight
Just figured someone on flightinfo might be able to shed some light on this, to satisfy my curiosity: I am watching FlightExplorer Pro right now and see (UAE4847) Emirates flight 4847 at FL390 just south of Kona flying east at about 530kts ground speed. Departure point is showin Sydney and...- LXApilot

Unical SLI is out...
The new SLI is fair. It takes into account the plans of UAL/CAL to merge when the airline was "right sized" and the last furlough went into effect. The "right sizing" was done with the future merger in consideration. As far as career expectations it also accounts for the fact that most CAL... -
UPS Airbus down in Birmingham
I landed in BHM on Tuesday morning about this same time, 5am local. Work was being done at the far end of runway 6 and the last several thousand feet were closed and PAEW were working on that end. Temporary stop bar lights were located prior to the rwy 6/18 intersection. Not sure if runway 18/36... -
US Air/United Question
Not flamebait, This question is for those of you who care to speculate as to the effect the proposed US Airways/American merger will have on Unitental. With UAL having practically abandoned some stations, like ATL, in favor of putting their passengers on US Airways through the code-share; I... -

Old Contracts and Pay Scales for legacies?
Delta's contact was first. The Sep 2000 contract at United was Delta+1. -
Weak L-UAL pilots
How about objecting to pay banding just based on the Weight/Pay productivity scale from the Kelly Act? Read Joe Doniac's article from ALPA magazine from last Spring for an explanation. Remember that this is what contract 2000 was based on. -
CL300 Operator Input
Thanks to all for the great input. This board is, without a doubt, a great tool. To clarify: Yes, the boss is in the transaction to acquire a pre-owned Challenger 300. I however, have no experience or knowledge of the airframe and wanted to reach out and gain some knowledge so I can set... -
CL300 Operator Input
Dear All, The boss is in the process of purchasing a Bombardier Challenger 300. I'm looking for accurate information we could pass along: range, speed, payload, runway performance, etc. I'm open to receiving position, negative or indifferent comments. We'd like to know what to look for with this... -
SFO-MRY on SKW EM2
Back in 1999-2000 United flew the 757-200 on the evening flight from SFO to MRY and it would be the first flight out in the morning. Crew would lay over 30+ hours. Bet it wasn't weight restricted. -

United Strike Vote
Newman, You are disappointing to say the least. btw- UAL management previously signed a contract about 10 years ago in which they said that mainline block hours/fleet composition would have to be X or better to even allow a single express 50 seat RJ and then a ratio of X+% would allow additional... -
FAA Callsign Issues
How about bringing it up that the other company operates very infrequently while our company operates dozens of flights per day? Sort of a "use it or lose it" argument? -
FAA Callsign Issues
TMMT, Thanks for your note. Any idea who I may want to contact? I started with the ICAO but they seem slow moving and confused. Thanks, Colin -
Need CASS Help
Igneously2, Thank you for your reply. Yes, I have discussed with our owner the costs associated with the airinc software and hosting: to which he has agreed. Our company has decided that this is a important benefit for pilots. Right now I would imagine that maybe Mesaba/pinnacle and Colgan... -
FAA Callsign Issues
Hello everyone: I figured this is the best place to address this topic as you may have had experience establishing a radio-telephone callsign with the FAA and ICAO in the past. We have another company using a very similar callsign to ours and we have trademarked our company name, etc in hopes... -

Need CASS Help
Hello everyone: I would like to thank you for taking a look at this thread. As the "major" airline pilot thread I figured to address this here first in hopes of getting the best results. I need a little help... Our company recently acquired it's FAR-121 certificate and are flying two... -
It's Official: USAirways Wants American
What roll will US Airways involvement in the Star Alliance and it's close ties to United Airlines over the past decade have in determining the future course of business for a combined AAL/USA? Makes me wonder what could potentially happen in ORD and LAX... Anyone want to chime in? -
Skyking captain YIKES...
737, LR-JET... whatever. If you've got the time and the airmanship ability; good for you. Most of the young guys are better pilots on average than the old timers I've seen. Not always the case; but on average I'd say so. And yes, experience is the best teacher for knowing what to do when... -

pilot sentenced for being drunk
Sunlitpath, While I understand and respect your position on pilots flying impaired; I disagree with your approach to this argument. Unfortunately your mild attempt at labeling, generalizing and your comments which are obviously contemptable towards "corporate pilots", I've had to dismiss you as...- LXApilot
