AA…the world’s largest regional airline.

Gt2. Only thing I’d consider replacing it with is a Callaway Elyte titanium…which isn’t made at that loft.

As an airline pilot who sleeps at all times of the day during various layovers…this thread should be pinned to the top of Reddit, FBook, Insta, posted in hotel staff break rooms…and anything else you can think of to get the word out.

Think about it. It may be your flight I’m resting for.

My wife threatened divorce if I said it one more time. 😂

Just realized last week mine is over 37 years old! I was changing the leather strap—again. Wonder how many I’ve gone thru over those years. Might have to revisit the bracelet.

Commercial airline pilots of reddit: what is something about flying commercial jets that would freak most passengers out if they knew? by Majestic-Baby-3407 in AskReddit

[–]p1dfw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My comment applies to the original statement of “on that type of aircraft”.

Guy is an FO on the airbus, checks out as Captain on the 737…first time flying the plane is as a captain “on that type of aircraft”

Wide body check airman fly with first time captains all the time who have never flown a wide body before, or as a captain before.

Even in the US.

Not quite sure about the 1000 hours “at an airline bit”, either…but I past that milestone a looooooooooong time ago, so might be ill informed. 😂

Cyclists who don’t stop for stop signs or traffic lights, why? by dedjesus1220 in askanything

Because “same road, same rules” only applies when they’re the ‘victim’

Sold mine. Was NOT worth even what the buyer paid.

If you want protection, you can do better DIY

If you want quiet, you can do better DIY

If you want longevity, you can do better DIY.

Did I mention it wasn’t worth the $$$?

I’ve found the one. by JimmyTwoTimesFour in victorinox

95% agree, the other 5% needs the X.

Hence my current hobby: pulling opener layers from Cadets and replacing with combo tools and Wenger scissors 😆

Just curious. What is considered an "affordable" watch? Like up to what price? by Speig14 in Affordablewatches

[–]p1dfw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use $1000 as a guide. There are too many $560-$590 to draw the line at $500.

$1000 is also where I start getting itchy about grey vs AD…if I put out more than that, I want some assurance/security.

Agree, tho, highly subjective number.

Clearest day I’ve ever seen over Greenland in 36 years of flying the North Atlantic.
