What's the deal with the "ex 767 guys" most of the senior GF pilots are "ex 767" at one point or another...according to the company it's by seniority, which by default rules out the "recent hire" 767 guys..which includes myself...

they really don't want the ex767 jocks with the baggage onboard.
Dear Chuck (I wish I flew a real airplane before) Y, would you please explain more clearly what do you mean by ex767 jocks with the baggage onboard.

Regards

Yo767

I thought the write up in today's GDN about MPs slagging each other off was hilarious!

One MP seemed convinced that the so called "value" of Bahraini citizenship has depreciated due to the fact that the government has naturalization schemes in place.

I never knew "value" of one's passport was proportional to how many their were in circulation

Bet ya the wives are peeved!
With BD 42 per month, (less than my teenaged son's pocket money), and denied the right to work - they must be pretty hard up!
Or that is what Gulfy would like us to believe.

Ground School B777?

Hi,
Where the ground school of B777 is planning to be?
INDIA OR USA???
is going to be easy to get a visa for both countries???
in case of India, staying there for two months is going to be really hard.

Well, I guess the 777 deal has been approved, not that it really makes much difference to any of us. It will be operating GF007 from 1st March then the 2nd one joins us towards the end of the same month & will operate to BKK. Whooppeee.
Haven't heard of pineapple face, but pizza face has been an instructor for awhile now.
