Thanks. Silver with lighter blue accent stripes on a navy background, to be real exact.

Perhaps not, but we're talking about the very Greatest Aerodynamicist in Argentine History (certainly the most prolific one). How could something so elementary have possibly slipped his mind?

When operating in the Caribbean we often use two airstairs. Close enough?

His doing better than ANYONE would require getting out of the house, which I highly doubt he ever does.

The most important of the post in question is that the author was visited by two men who told him to knock it off.

You're welcome.

Chaze Mickalo Cable. Where do they come up with these names?

Interesting...So, you're on an H-1B? Nope. Since I was already working for this company in Argentina, the type that applies in this case is L-1 (internal transfer). In my case, L-1A to be more precise. Inconceivable! And no, I don't need to look that word up. (You probably won't even get the refere...

Non-aeronautical engineering. I worked for said company in Arg and was offered a position in the US.

I am flying SW (for the first time) ELP-AUS on May 17 and back on May 19. I hope I am equally lucky and I don't died. SW is the only airline connecting the 2 cities direct, reducing cost, time and number of take-off and landings (where you are more likely to died) I'm almost scared to ask what you'...

Correction: all runways have FOUR lenghts.

Each runway has three lenghts.

Yeah, I think there may need to be some context to that analysis and the context may be difficult to come by.

I just posted this: ...and who has said enough stupid things over the years displaying some big holes in their aviation knowledge over the years that I'm not really sure they actually fly an airplane... ...and I am haunted by the ole "pot-calling-the-kettle-black" and "three fingers ...

A side note: if the tail # of the airplane in question is being reported correctly as N632RW, then I've flown it quite a few times.

Indeed!

Flyboy had years of beautiful, broad experience. His knowledge was tops.

Was?

Ok, I got that. Thank you. But my question was more regarding how things work (typically), what a pilot can expect in terms of career growth, not what is legally admissible. For the first question, I guess that, typically, you will have a good bunch of MD-80 CA and 777 FO that will want this 777 CA...

Wow, so may stripes!!! Congratulations for the achievement. To quick somehow related question. Is it correct that typically (often? sometimes? seldom?) FOs have the option to make progress in their careers by moving to captain in the same type or to FO in a higher type? If yes, I wonder what are th...

That is all.

Actually, most of them are pretty attentive, but, as in everything else, there is always that percentage of dipshits. But yes, they've definitely prevented unpleasant stuff from happening before.
