Nail on the HEAD
Dragon Spice - never a truer word said.
However in defence of the next generation, they are good operators.
But - the selection of the first lady was very political.
Now back to the green waste (!!!!!) 'flowing from Niagara';
Another 3 pilots are off to learn Arabic. They are leaving NOT because of PAY or LIFESTYLE, BUT because of the !!!!! from the HORSE and the PHotel.
- one was a 737 chk & Trg Capt.
- other Capt had been a Trg Capt but resigned because of the HORSE !!!!!
- 3rd was a 747 F/O. If my memory serves me right, he was the F/O with the farmer when they operated SYD-NAN with 1x less cc due sickness out of base. The PHotel had assured them that CAAFI dispensation had been approved. However when they got back, - you know the story - IT DIDNT FU*KING EXIST. THE PHOTEL FU*KING LIED AGAIN - just like he did in court over the sacking of a 767 F/O. I know the farmer was pretty blunt with his comments to the PHotel FRONT DESK. (Probably the first nail in his coffin).
More recent events;
Did you hear about-
- a new 737 Trg Capt putting cushions in the Capts window to block his view and the do a NDB app at NFFN while on a revenue flt?
- another new trg Capt got a block clr NAN-HNL (this is a MTOW, 20.9t fuel, 6:40hr sector ldg on fumes), then climbing everytime the optimum level was 300ft above actual level. F/O (who was vastly more 737NG & ETOPs experienced) advised him NOT to operate this way - BUT you know Capts - so they arr HNL having burnt 700kg MORE fuel than Flt plan.
HOwever- BOTH are still Trg Capts because they have brown noses and drink at the horses trough!!!!!!!!!!!
In Sha la - is that how you spell it?
Must away and check my arabic.
