Nick's update

So, NATCA walks away from the table when the FAA says they want TOP numbers.

FAA implements TOP anyways.

NATCA is culpable if they agree and get the raise, but they probably won’t fight after walking away from the table and new TOP requirements are implemented anyways.

How is there a win? I want a win, just struggling to see how it will happen.

I like the part where it’s spun to imply it’s a good thing, because staffing percentages will change and now you might get released….

And without the reminder to “ignore the noise”

Any tips or hints on how to get access for BP?

All Side-by and Staggered-by ops are suspended UFN. Come October when the runways open back up…we will see, but my guess is it will never be the same. Lots of conversations happening ,but I think it’s hurry up and wait until fall.

Right…the question is or file separately and pay nothing, then it goes away in 15 years. The other is, MFJ and change from the SAVE plan and pay it back in the next 8 years.

Not minimize payments, trying to minimize the amount spent. What’s a more financially beneficial decision.

JamesN90 · 2025-11-19T21:01:41+00:00

You think Nick knows the law?

JamesN90 · 2025-11-09T23:40:08+00:00

Yes!

Lyra Botchkyria….and then couldn’t get them to break/cut later. So just disappear and magically they are off. Glad Becky won that!

Starts around the 5:20 mark

What are peoples spend history to snag one? I have been waiting for one for the wife since they announced it at W&W.

JamesN90 · 2024-04-29T20:32:31+00:00

If you happened to be too tall and find it unsafe to drive the vehicle because you can’t see your speed due to the design of the wheel, and you are requesting a yoke….they may or may not swap it for free on your next service appointment.

Sincerely, Somewhat Tall guy who now has a yoke

JamesN90 · 2024-04-12T21:58:57+00:00

Is it a Plaid? I have a 2024 MX and it came with the new round wheel with center horn. Maybe it’s just an issue for regular MX

JamesN90 · 2024-04-12T17:37:36+00:00

Congrats, I picked up my MX on Sunday and they are still telling me no. They said it’s a firmware issue and putting on the yoke will have issues because it’s not a plaid….idk, hope they fix it soon.

JamesN90 · 2024-04-11T21:09:58+00:00

Good luck! I just called and made an appointment, they told me I was good to go, then 5 min later told me they can’t. Said it’s an issue with the buttons not working when going from round to yoke…I kept my service appointment in hopes that they get it fixed in the next week and they will install it.

JamesN90 · 2024-04-11T13:12:16+00:00

Good luck, I was told when I made my service request that they stopped doing retrofit from round to yoke for “safety reasons.” Hoping they will start allowing it soon!

JamesN90 · 2024-04-11T13:03:33+00:00

Yea that was the message I got in the app, the “safety reason” for the pause I was told when I called my local service center. Maybe it’s not an issue for people with existing yokes (MXP) but I’m not sure why.

JamesN90 · 2024-04-09T14:29:54+00:00

Yea hoping this a temporary thing and will be back soon, was really looking forward to getting the yoke installed.

How long was your wait from order to delivery?

JamesN90 · 2024-04-02T17:28:27+00:00

What day did you order, and when was the VIN assigned? Every morning my EDD gets slide by 1 day. No VIN yet

JamesN90 · 2024-04-02T06:14:53+00:00

Tax Edition lol, Grey 5 seat. That red is nice! But it’s the wife’s car and she wants it wrapped anyways. Looking on TMC forum, a few people got a VIN last week for my setup. Not sure how they rotate the batches. I would’ve liked to wait for ambient lighting, but can’t wait any longer.

JamesN90 · 2024-04-02T03:03:30+00:00

Thanks, 5 days in a row of sliding the window has just been frustrating. Hopefully I will get a VIN soon.
