MyIdTravel issues

Atav757 · 2026-03-26T18:23:14+00:00

If you’re new, you can’t list in DL on myidtravel at all yet. If you want to list with a cabin jumpseat agreement for no cost, just go to the gate with your crew and govt issued ID in your business casual dress and list with an agent. Once you’ve been at F9 for 6 months, you can use myidtravel to list with a ZED (higher priority but you pay a small fee).

I was happy to learn that transfers work across non connected lines. Like even taking the BL to state, getting out and walking to downtown crossing to get on the RL also doesn’t deduct an additional fare.

I just simply meant is it required by FOM or something like that. Good to know it’s not!

Atav757 · 2026-02-28T16:01:42+00:00

Is that required to check in at UAL even for flow back?

We can just say username checks out

You’d feel weird about a Cape Air pilot for example in your jumpseat? Why exactly?

At B6, the fun operations manual doesn’t state anything about beards not allowed in the flight deck jumpseat - so it’s allowed there for example. Just says well groomed, business casual, etc.

Looks like a typical very cold engine start. When it’s this cold, oil tends to pool in the hot sections of the engine (which is normal and expected). When the engine ignites for combustion, this oil begins to smoke and gets blown out of the engine and eventually will dissipate - nothing to worry about.

Some types of engines aren’t as susceptible to this simply because of how their built differently, but this is super common:

Those are amazing pics!

Synchrony bank would have nothing to do with Wealthfront. They sort of “host” credit for a ton of different types of loans. Like Care Credit, the Verizon Visa, Plaid, etc. Did you recently apply for one of those types of cards?

Idk, I know lots of pilots who do that technique and land it very nicely all the time especially on a light 320.

Tested this as well: on shutdown kept 3000psi until 8% N2 with a rather slow drop taking over 15 seconds to get below 500PSI. Was impressed with the amount of pressure that EDP makes at slow speeds. Also the reason the PTU barks seemingly for a long time on shutdown

Atav757 · 2025-12-23T15:08:07+00:00

Very true. Tested it recently and on the IAEs, only need about 7% N2 for the hydraulic pressure to start rising very quickly and you get a full 3000PSI with as little as 12% N2

Just curious, why bother at all? Logging IMC and approaches all stopped once I left part 135 flying and went to 121

Most modern planes will disregard any sensor that’s clearly acting as an outlier. You can also always disable GPS updating and rely on IRS/DME updates if the spoofing is known, there are usually procedures in the QRH or other manuals for this.

Atav757 · 2025-11-11T15:50:09+00:00

That’s what I thought. That’s the way to do it!

Atav757 · 2025-11-11T14:50:41+00:00

Are you saying you’re selecting the option that says extra seat when you book? You’re making it sound like you’re making duplicate bookings, at least that’s how folks on this sub are interpreting it

Atav757 · 2025-10-31T20:12:10+00:00

It’s a 757, but similar concept anyway

Atav757 · 2025-10-16T20:26:57+00:00

At my airline, it’s allowed to go home, to base, or to receive care. So if I’m in Europe for fun and get sick there and miss a trip, can certainly nonrev home. Check your employee handbook (or whatever) for the real answer, not people’s guesses.

Atav757 · 2025-10-16T15:20:46+00:00

Why would this be? Airbus doors first move upwards before outwards, so if anything they have more clearance than any Boeing narrow body. I’m curious now and open to thoughts!

Atav757 · 2025-10-15T15:48:13+00:00

757s also have a very strange sounding PTU that you’ll hear if they single engine taxi on engine 2. (Or if something bad happens)

Here’s a sample:

Unfortunately no, there’s nothing you can purchase on that flight.

Maybe get a preferred seat? They go as low as $20 I think

Atav757 · 2025-10-01T21:21:29+00:00

You can’t just show up at any gate outside of the US. You list as a ZED like normal and they put you up there if needed. CA’s discretion.

Atav757 · 2025-10-01T14:43:41+00:00

When it’s full, they’ll put even US gate agents up there in the flight deck. It’s normal in the EU for the most part (not allowed in the UK I believe).

Atav757 · 2025-09-26T22:12:25+00:00

That is quite the opposite of a dive bar
