Hmm, a little disagreement here... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" /> . .. .F.D. Yup, got some experience in the area:. .Done about 7 Hadj's, also a bunch of "Teacher Hadj's" all on the 747 classic.. .Also done Air India Cargo and Saudia Cargo wet-lease on the DC-8, etc.. .. .Too my surprise I ended up with a US Major after Tower Air went Tango Uniform. (Don't know why they would hire an old burned out non-scheder like me. Classic good looks perhaps. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="cool.gif" /> ). .. .As for winding up the folks on PPRuNe, hmm I would have spent the time chasing them Icelandic Stews over at Rose Village instead. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" /> . .. .18-Wheeler: Ya still have some ex-FF folks left at AA? 3 guys from my class went over there in 95, good people all of 'em.. .. .Got a call from Air Atlanta a while ago about a job, but the pay-scale was such that ya had to spend all month at the assigned base to get full pay.. .Is that deal still in effect?. .. .Sure miss the classic. Like driving a big old Caddilac it was.. .Don't miss the lifestyle with a month in the sand-box and a few days off, then back for another month or more.. .Almost got fired when I bought a ticket and went home on scheduled days off without the blessings of FF crew schedule. . .ALPA lawyers saved my tail, but that was close.. .For punishment they sent me back to Jeddah.. .. .Aye, good 'ol days. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="frown.gif" />
