  1. @wilsonleiser I'll be one of them Monday early afternoon (though we'll be crossing the other way, against the NAT tracks). about 3 hours ago from Tweetie in reply to wilsonleiser
  2. @FlyNFast I was a 727 FO for a bit. I think I was only qualified to turn on the window heat and the pitot heat. 4:30 PM Nov 11th from Tweetie in reply to FlyNFast
  3. @FlyNFast At my company, the captain always does the walkaround (unless there's an RO), which really doesn't seem right. 4:11 PM Nov 11th from Tweetie in reply to FlyNFast
  4. @eejay A Twitter search indicates it's probably a nationwide outage. 4:56 AM Nov 6th from Tweetie in reply to eejay
  5. @simplysteven Yep. It seems to be down in a large part of the U.S., if not everywhere. 4:28 AM Nov 6th from Tweetie in reply to simplysteven
  6. @shoewee It's not just in south Florida. The data stopped working in Louisville too. 4:10 AM Nov 6th from Tweetie in reply to shoewee
  7. Day one of simulating complete in the 767 simulator. We're back in the 757 sim tomorrow for day two. 1:32 PM Nov 4th from Tweetie
  8. @jetcaptain Years ago I tried to loop a 767 sim at the Boeing training center. I thought it was going to jump off of its mounts. 5:48 PM Nov 3rd from Tweetie in reply to jetcaptain
  9. @jetcaptain Yeah--I don't want to be the one who breaks the new simulator before it's officially put into service. 5:47 PM Nov 3rd from Tweetie in reply to jetcaptain
  10. I get to fly our brand-new 767 simulator tomorrow. 4:17 PM Nov 3rd from Tweetie
  11. @egid But it avoids confusion with the other thing they say, "Taxi to holding position, runway 27," which means to taxi to and hold short. 3:26 AM Nov 2nd from Tweetie in reply to egid
  12. @puneet @egid "Line up and wait" isn't ambiguous at all, and it's what they say everywhere outside the U.S. 5:43 PM Nov 1st from Tweetie in reply to puneet
  13. My annual recurrent training starts tomorrow. It's not something I look forward to, but it never turns out to be a big deal. 6:13 AM Nov 1st from Tweetie
  14. @puneet The G3000 is the coolest thing I've ever seen. I wish they made it for airliners. 9:19 AM Oct 31st from Tweetie in reply to puneet
  15. @Jason They should have taken off clothes instead. 4:39 PM Oct 29th from Tweetie in reply to Jason
  16. @AtomicT I was starting to suspect that! 1:12 PM Oct 29th from Tweetie in reply to AtomicT
  17. @AtomicT You couldn't decipher the secret pilot codes? 12:57 PM Oct 29th from Tweetie in reply to AtomicT
  18. At least the wind's blowing right down the runway. KDEN 291853Z 35028G33KT 1/2SM R35L/2400V3500FT SN FZFG BLSN VV006 M04/M06 11:42 AM Oct 29th from Tweetie
  19. Flying two legs back to PHL tonight, which is never fun. At least there's a relief pilot, so I can take a break. http://bit.ly/rKGbW 1:17 PM Oct 27th from Tweetie
  20. @askacfi Does the U.S. just want standardize and use the same terminology the rest of the world uses? 12:16 PM Oct 27th from Tweetie in reply to askacfi
