The SHOW: Airlines still a "good gig"??

[zippy]

Without invoking the wrath of the fight club, is there any smoke trail to a "laboratory" of sorts where flex takeoffs and long call reserve are found near here?

You mean the good dudes club that was supposed to be a secret to keep away lifers and douchebags?

Well it’s been pretty much taken over by those latter groups so there’s not much point in secrecy.

You mean the place where “the missions continue” and the first thread is about buying field grade uniforms?

All the fun gossip is on apc anyways.

If you have a tattoo sleeve, how much does it affect your chances of being an airline pilot? I keep seeing answers bouncing between 1. You just have to wear long sleeves to 2. No tattoos at all

3. Remove and replace

Perfect, currently sawing my arm off as we speak

If you don’t already have a sleeve, don’t get one.

At my airline (and other I believe) you’d have to wear long sleeves. I don’t think they’d even know you had one unless you told them. I interviewed in a suit, and they didn’t say a word about tattoos.

Yeah, I have tattoos on my arm down to my elbow... So loud and clear, nothing lower than that

Long sleeves for you.

But is the ability to have tattoos and fly worth being paid 20-25% of what you’d otherwise make?

 

[Griz882]

Sure! Sunny weather, palm trees, and absolute freedom of expression!

 

[mad dog]

Long sleeves for you.

Why not get one? If he plans on wearing long sleeves, nobody would ever know.

This thread has been dormant awhile. But under the circumstance and consider the thread title, this is the best place to put this. A video from a face book post a friend sent me. Don't know the poster. Filmed out a cabin window. Wait until after the landing in PIT. Remember that is PIT. Not some dedicated storage facility like ROW, AVQ, or MHV. And just one airline. Images like this has prompted the FAA to send out letters to the airlines to fly off planes at some airports where they are constricting movement and effecting contingency plans for ground control.

Yikes! I stopped counting after 36!

Looks like you need to sign into Facebook to see that video. I am not on Facebook, but had no trouble viewing before. Here is another video of PIT. Looks like even more parked in the Facebook post.
