Default Look At This Trip!

Look at the first two days of the four day I'm starting tomorrow. I couldn't really believe it when I saw it.

I did almost the same thing a few weeks back with TUL.

At least you have the college chicks in GNV. TUL is awesome if you're into evangelical telethons and tornadoes. I've always wanted to take "the outsiders" reality tour..

Is that a 700 line or a 200 line?

God ain't that the truth.
TUL is one of the most boring overnights in the system. BNA on the other hand...

It's a 200 line. Once you do your differences you can tell if it's a 700 line because all of the flight numbers begin with 22, but you probably already knew that.

I'm at home right now because the terminal in GNV is still closed after the accident yesterday. As soon as they told me I could go home yesterday they called back because someone called in sick for their 700 IOE. I guess they found someone else because they never called me back. I'm guessing I'll pick up the trip tomorrow morning if KGNV doesn't open soon.

My last 5-day work period:

Day 1: Noon show:
VGT-GCN-VGT, VGT-GCN (3-hour "deluxe" i.e. layover)-VGT
8:15 p.m. release

Day 2: 5:30 a.m. show:
VGT-BCE (deluxe)-GCN (deluxe)-VGT, VGT-VGT (air tour)
5 p.m. release

Day 3: 10:30 a.m. show:
VGT-GCN (QT)- VGT
3:30 p.m. release

Day 4: Noon show:
VGT-GCN (deluxe)-VGT
8:30 p.m. release

Day 5: Scheduled 4:30 a.m. show (changed to 1:30 p.m. show):
VGT-1G4 (deluxe)- VGT
7:15 p.m. release



Remember I don't know what I'm doing until 4:00 p.m. the day before. I know what days I work, just not what "trips" until 4 p.m.

Yeah, I know that. However, even if I see a 22XX flight number I wait until I get to the airplane to call scheduling and let them know I can't fly it. Keeps them on their toes. Also, I didn't see any flight numbers in your post.

They're trying to get more CAs and FOs on line to put us all on, essentially 2 turn days and four days a week, but our attrition is so high its hard enough to just get "enough" pilots ...

That's what happens when Airways splits the flying between 15 different operations.

I had a Colgan 1900 guy in the jumpseat yesterday (HYN based I think) and he was really suprised when I clicked the a/p off at about 6000 on the way into Charlotte. He said that if he had an autopilot he would damn well use the thing all the way down.
