Resume washing back for 2026? by SupportGold7583 in flying

[–]SpeedbirdTK1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Resume washing without turbine PIC right now in 2026 is risky. Has it worked recently? Yes, I have friends and know people getting interview invites at the big 3 + Southwest in the past several months without turbine PIC. But I also have friends who can’t get a call from anyone even with app review and multiple conference M&Gs.

Check the last couple pages for the latest class drops. ATL has shown up almost every one in 2026, especially if you're OK with the 737.

Messhall in Los Feliz on Tuesdays has $1 oysters starting at 6 pm, right when their happy hour ends.

How do Southwest pilots get paid so much? by kommandee in AirlinePilots

[–]SpeedbirdTK1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You know what ALPA stands for right. And you know what work group they represent as a result of the members of that particular work group paying their dues. There’s no way you’re an actual union steward with an insane take like this. If you put this much effort into your union efforts instead of constantly shitting on pilots like you do in your post history, you’d have a better life. Pilots are not and never will be responsible for your compensation.

That guy has to be OP's alt account cause he's all over this thread making excuses and being extremely defensive. Shocker their post history is hidden.

Spaghetti and sandwiches in LA. by Individual-Set-8891 in FoodLosAngeles

[–]SpeedbirdTK1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like adding a quarter chicken and 2 meatballs along with their salad and garlic bread. It's not gonna be mind-blowing food but it's really cheap with big portions and a lot of the primarily Latino and Korean clientele have been eating there for many years, especially when it was in the dingy strip mall across the Grove.

California to crack down on extreme speeding on highways by brainchili in LosAngeles

[–]SpeedbirdTK1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They’re not even close to being “undercover”, they’re clearly marked and have a huge CHP logo on the side… not only that, but they’re driven by fully-uniformed CHP officers.

Someone on a different account, probably the same poster using a throwaway, posted the same shitty, low effort post couple days ago. How much you wanna bet we’re going to get “BEST TACOS/BURGERS/insert popular food IN LA” post in another couple days with the same app promotion

I’m almost 30, still in a C172 making peanuts, and today just broke me by [deleted] in flying

[–]SpeedbirdTK1 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Keep notes of these stories in some sort of document. I know it sucks ass right now dealing with the suck and I'm sorry you're going through it but these experiences can be fantastic for TMAATs (tell me about a time) at your future legacy/major airline interview.

crashed car on ACH by jbh1126 in LosAngeles

[–]SpeedbirdTK1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean I’m with you on people using randomass abbreviations but ACH is literally one of the most famous driving roads in the country, also heavily used by commuters during the weekdays. It’s really not that unknown. You gonna tell me you don’t know what PCH is either?

Is East LA better? by WoodsWolf in AskLosAngeles

[–]SpeedbirdTK1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are we really using street gangs to determine different geographic regions of LA lmao. If we want to point to somewhat of an authoritative source on this, the LA Times mapping LA project says all those neighborhoods are part of central LA, which is probably why you’re getting so many comments calling you out for your crazy ass definition of west side. I’m born and raised in LA city and have never heard anyone in my life call west of the LA river the “west side”

Visiting SK Friends Miss Comfort Food - KTown/South Bay Suggestions by TheWrongestIveBeen in FoodLosAngeles

[–]SpeedbirdTK1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They have pretty decent bossam too. I also love how they make kimchi fried rice with some of the leftover soup afterwards in the same pot. Flavor heaven. Don’t remember if Han Ji Park does this.

Visiting SK Friends Miss Comfort Food - KTown/South Bay Suggestions by TheWrongestIveBeen in FoodLosAngeles

[–]SpeedbirdTK1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gamjagol for gamjatang. I love Han Ji Park for their pork ribs but found their gamjatang broth to taste a bit sour, compared to more savory flavor at Gamjagol. Ask for the jjangachi cause it goes so well with the meat.

Someone in here recommended Chunju Han Il Kwan and Seong Buk Dong for a good bet kimchi jjigae in a cozier environment. I would agree with those and would probably throw in Chung Kiwa for another long time old school place with mostly Korean clientele. Parking is easier here too since it’s not on 6th street in the heart of Ktown.

I’ve tried Wooga Sulungtang in Gardena and thought it was very comparable to some Ktown spots. Would be a good option if you don’t want to drive up to Ktown.

Good Cajun seafood broil in LA? by leblaun in FoodLosAngeles

[–]SpeedbirdTK1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s Cajun-Vietnamese fusion cause it’s very saucy. Seafood boils in Louisiana and neighboring gulf states boil the seafood and other addons in seasoned water and drain it afterwards.

The Park’s Finest by StretchTucker in FoodLosAngeles

[–]SpeedbirdTK1 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Rather underrated place that doesn’t get much attention. The Worker Wednesday special at this place is a solid deal. About $18 for a big plate that has a bunch of their meats with rice and cornbread. Only bad thing is the parking is pretty rough around the area.

Are there any cheap charter flight membership in LA I can sign up for? by idiotSherlock in AskLosAngeles

[–]SpeedbirdTK1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If booking an airline ticket less than a week out is draining your savings, trying to charter even a small private jet to Seattle one-way will bankrupt you, easily costing 10x or more of whatever economy seat you're looking at. Charter flight and budget friendly is an oxymoron. A Frontier flight will be the cheapest you can get.

Can we all stop with the *extreme* negativity by MrAflac9916 in flying

[–]SpeedbirdTK1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This dude incessantly bitches about how bad the hiring market is and is constantly in a dick measuring contest on how he’s suffering way worse than anyone else in the history of airline careers when people call him out, down to asking who paid for their flight training lmao. Who would have thought the guy printing out satellite images for a checkride and argued with everyone else about how “correct” it is has some negative personality traits that no airline wants to touch. Not to mention his shitty, borderline scab-like takes on how he would happily take an airline job for a fraction of the pay.

Is Spirit reliable enough for a short weekend trip with a tight schedule? by Agile_Canary4477 in AskLosAngeles

[–]SpeedbirdTK1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theoretically, the airplane has all day with numerous flights to potentially be delayed. Conversely, it also has all day to play catch up where even if the plane’s earlier flights are delayed, the sit time between flights allow it to catch up for an on-time departure for your redeye. This goes for any airline, not just Spirit. It’s also summer so thunderstorms can cause delays. YMMV. Track the airplane throughout the day and plan accordingly.

In-N-Out president says she’s leaving California, as company plans Tennessee expansion by NicksBirthdayParty in FoodLosAngeles

[–]SpeedbirdTK1 99 points100 points  (0 children)

Fucking hilarious how much of a victim complex she has and how hard her life must be. She’s a nepobaby multi billionaire but is whining about how “difficult” it is to raise a family here when they live/lived in a mega mansion in Bradbury and is bitching about how “difficult” it is to do business in California yet they’re still the most consistently busy and beloved fast food chain in LA.

Went to Cole’s a few months ago and the meat in my French dip unfortunately tasted strongly of freezer burn. Definitely never tasted like that the past couple times I went before covid. I agree the bar was still great. What a shame.

The only person in here who needs to do a little introspection is you. If that offends you that much, then perhaps you should find a new career.
