Hey AJL, thanks for the report.
If this was an IFR flight what was the routing and GLA is what type of airspace?
Do you have to contact Clearance Delivery before ground?
Here's a general question, why does some many people on PPRuNe hate their jobs? I thought <acronym title="OLD: Crossair (Switzerland), NEW: Swiss International Airlines (Switzerland)">LX</acronym> was a good company? <acronym title="easyJet (United Kingdom) and United Feeder Service (USA)">U2</acron...
Jump to postHey guys, recently I was reading and found it odd that in Europe LCC's except for <acronym title="Air Berlin (Germany)">AB</acronym> do not handle transfers naturally, its a sector to sector system. However if your transfering, how do you handle that? Extra pay for a straight through luggage transfe...

Jump to postAs someone who is both pilot and enthusiast I can tell you that its all down to personal choice. Some guys like all the bells and whistles; along with auto-throttle and some of the best IFR equipment around.

Jump to postBut Commavia to me, an international carrier's objective in NYC is a strictly O&D market. One that is built for leisure, business, and the VFR crowd. To me its the only city where you can get away with out connecting to an alliance carrier because of the sheer size of the place. Now as for the airli...
Jump to postAI 2637, the bigger the aircraft the easier it is to be put into balance.

Jump to postI think he wants to be a non-union LH. Pretty much a hub and spoke airline with a LCC and Leisure division.
Jump to postThanks Shamrock, hopefully IALPA resolved it towards what they wanted and not what the company wanted.
Jump to postGuys I thought I'd ask my best source for Irish info, what's going on with the pilots? Did they amend the <acronym title="Belfast - International (Aldergrove) (BFS / EGAA), United Kingdom">BFS</acronym> contract to a system wide ie (<acronym title="Cork (ORK / EICK), Ireland">ORK</acronym> and <acro...
Jump to postHa, I think a huge reason for the fall is the introduction of LTU. Is it a take over canindate? I doubt it as it doesn't add much value to the traditional hub and spoke system. It does have its advantages as it has no unions.
Jump to postI think its intresting to note that while we look at both pilots asleep; One Two Go's fatal accident happened due to the chief pilot falling asleep; the only difference here is that Thai's didn't report it while NASA did a study on it. Intresting the culture's of the world.
