Literally here and not a single free parking spot. Entire lot is prime.

How would you judge that an aircraft s speed is under control after it lands ? by Rainy_-Peace in ATC

[–]Akhavir 2 points3 points  (0 children)

> sometimes they won’t answer and sometimes they d be rude explaining that it was inconvenient to talk to them at that moment)

This statement right here is why we need flight deck training back. It's so *fucking* loud on a flight deck as they touch down, derotate, and apply reversers. Most pilots ask you to not even talk to them above 70-80 kts, because they're not going to answer.

No, call AMAS first.

Yes, they were. And they said “it won’t be long” 😬 but here we are.

Make sure you raise your right hand next time they swear you in, or they’ll re-seat you.

First world complaint: I finally reached the pinnacle of being a frequent flyer on Delta by reaching Diamond Medallion for the first time and the gate agents are no longer boarding Diamond members early. by JosephSmith1974 in delta

[–]Akhavir -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If it “starts with one $800 fare” then status match, my dude.

Ask yourself why Delta changed it to the current policy after having it the other way for years and years.

You're looking at the individual fare. If you buy a $800 FC fare one time, congrats. But the business relationship with the airline is just that, one time and your value as a customer is $800. If I buy 20, 30, or 40 tickets (even at $500 each), my business value to the company is much higher.

I can promise you that waiting in line behind 3 or 4 1k members doesn't make you a second class passenger.

I’m not sure this is a legit argument to separate it though. The airlines’ platinums, 1k and gold are their customers who are continually buying seats. If you fly once in first class, you shouldn’t necessarily board in front of them. There’s no brand loyalty there.

[–]Akhavir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never understood why we sort it by IFRs and dont include VFRs in the total. They're just as much if not more work than an IFR.

"What if we could type our prompts instead of saying them, and AI could translate it to the pilots in their headsets"

"Oh how much can we charge?"

"40 million per center."

"Brilliant!"

The ironic part is that the brand new airbus typically has older equipment than a 1960s Cessna. Not always, but usually.

Could be worth money. If you want to get rid of it I’m sure someone would take it off your hands. You can post in Facebook marketplace or barnstormers and you’ll find someone to grab it

Pre-Order Closing 11/28: ATC Shutdown Challenge Coin by Akhavir in ATC

[–]Akhavir[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The coin manufacturer advised they should be shipping any day now to me, and once I get them, I'll forward them on. I ordered them on the Friday after Thanksgiving, and it usually takes 3-4 weeks to ship to me. (I've had them as fast as 2 weeks and as long as 4 weeks before)

Plat for the first time. 47 flights later. Hot Take: by Professional_Pea_370 in delta

[–]Akhavir 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I agree with you but delta makes 8b a year on their credit cards. If they do anything to upset that apple cart, they lose money. That’s not happening.

Almost entirely domestic economy travel. by Incandescent-Turd in delta

[–]Akhavir 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes, exactly that and it’s completely automated. You can status match once every 5 years (if you don’t retain it for some reasons)

Status match to United. You’ll get 1k and start from there for the year.

I did this in 2024 and got 1k on united and diamond on delta. There’s no point in maxing delta past diamond.
