Specs The top of the seniority lists are venturing off to "Dot Land" at an alarming rate. There are no new people coming into the bottom. Add to that the number of existing people at the bottom of the seniority lists that will not return. Old aircraft are being removed permanently from service. New aircraft are not being built. Even with the obvious good reasons not to, and ridiculous rules forcing the decision, everyone I know wants to travel. Everybody in Canada will be vaccinated by September. Every day new treatments are discovered to help patients rec

If you thought there was a shortage of pilots before, wait till this is over. Frontier is smart. Maybe some of the new hires will stay. There will be not enough pilots, not enough aircraft, and nobody to fix them. Let's hope the people that run the place use it as an opportunity to make some money for a change. For years I have thought that if you raised the fares 25 cents a week for 3 months, you would not know what to do with all the money

Feds to replace CC-137 Polaris fleet (the old WD A310s)

If you expect to sell us some fighter jets, be prepared to throw in a few large transport aircraft Or perhaps, the aluminum tariffs are removed, we get a few aircraft Just thinking outloud. -
No Noise - - - No Vibration ???
Tango Foxtrot replied to Kip Powick's topic in Airline Aviation Forum
Thanks boestar. 280 knots I find it difficult to believe that an A320 does not have enough power to climb past 24,000 ft with it's gear down. And we are to believe that you can't over speed the gear either Comments from A320 people please. -

Tango Foxtrot replied to Kip Powick's topic in Airline Aviation Forum
Does the over speed warning on an A320 change with aircraft configuration? There's no mention of an inspection of the aircraft for too much speed with the gear down -
I am sorry Seeker. You are absolutely correct. The theory is there anyway. I signed in to remove that part of the post before you saw it, but I was too late. To me the air conditioning system in an airplane is much like the lav on a Dash 8. Ever looked down the hole when you flush it ? The shoot just keeps going round and round. I would rather not be in a crowded airplane right now. Let's start with crawling over each other to stow carry ons......

No seriously Seeker, I would not get off. Obviously this guy is an attention whore. And a stupid one at that. There are two answers for him. Wear a face shield, or stay home. Why are flight attendants and gate agents fighting this battle You need a mask to go through security. Enough said. I don't get in here without one, you don't either. Can't handle it stay home. We are supposed to be under lock down anyway. The broken up tears of laughter are about your description of aircraft air conditioning systems

Went to Costco the other day, there was a sign stating that all customers were required to wear a mask. All customers not able to wear a mask are required to wear a face shield. How does a person even get to the airplane without a mask? I can't get in here without one If I was on the airplane, either he is getting off., or I am.

Finally !! F/As Noted as Babies
Tango Foxtrot replied to Kip Powick's topic in Airline Aviation Forum
This is one of my favorite pet peeves. Not only because of covid, but long before. Long ago I was traveling in J class on an A320. I went to the washroom after a classy looking Lady that had just **bleep** all over the toilet and walls. If you are not comfortable using a public bathroom, stay home. If the washrooms on an aircraft are not safe enough for the crew, they are not safe for anyone. All flights should be canceled. -
There is an Air Canada 737 max sitting at a gate in YEG

Tango Foxtrot replied to Airband's topic in Airline Aviation Forum
And the person who puts the final EASA stamp of approval on 737 max is for some reason still on vacation Anyone else have the feeling Boeing is getting "Trumped"
