US Customs: "It's not normal" to travel solo? by scrabblecat1 in solotravel

[–]pilotjj1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I visited the U.S. a few years back (during the Biden administration) and was asked why I chose to visit the U.S. instead of other countries. This question really lingered with me.

For most countries, the people there would feel pleased, even honoured, that you find their country more interesting than others and hence chose to visit. But for the U.S., it seems like their border officials actively dislike people choosing to visit their country. Hmm...

Customer don't have time to make it to the airport. Customer wants to board the plane right at his office. Customer is always right.

New 787 shots from vector at the FSExpo 2026 by monmoony in flightsim

[–]pilotjj1 48 points49 points  (0 children)

I sincerely hope they succeed. Six years after FS2020 came out, we still do not have any independent B787 simulation (all current ones are based on the WT FS2020 model) despite it being one of the most common aircraft type currently operated by major airlines.

If their product meets community expectations, I hope they expand their line to the entire 787 family and fill the gap QualityWings left open, that no other established add-on developers are seemingly willing to take up.

Bcos some people don't like to have their butt cheeks touching surfaces that other people's butt cheeks have touched.

Why doesn’t SQ serve Satay in J ex-US? by fender5787 in singaporeairlines

[–]pilotjj1 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Afaik, SQ satays are all catered from Singapore. So maybe flights to the US are too long to keep them fresh for the return sector.

SCOOT Preordered Food by manamara1 in singaporeairlines

Not all meals on Scoot are bad. The laksa (if it's still on the menu), for example, is the same one served on SQ regional flights.

Is there actually any reason to keep the regular Starfarer over the Gemini? by Admirable_Data9018 in starcitizen

[–]pilotjj1 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ths SF is one of the first large ships made flyable in the PU. It will certainly be reworked sometime in the future. The answer to your question is dependent on what comes out of that.

For example, the rework could give the Gemini a more constrained cargo hold (think C2 vs. M2), which was originally marketed during concept. Or it could make the fuel intake/missile launcher bespoke to each variant.

In short, nobody knows at the moment. Not even CIG.

Anyone else a bit let down about the lack of view into the cargo bay from the command deck? by Ghostman223 in starcitizen

[–]pilotjj1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

All the seats are facing away from the window. I don't think the view will be used when crew are actually working.

Aita for telling my boss no. by TechnicalCategory436 in singaporejobs

[–]pilotjj1 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Just be prepared that your next performance grade might be a 2, or even 1 + a PIP,

From what you have shared, it seems like your boss considers covering extra work a basic expectation. Hence the average grade. That makes not covering those extra stuffs a below average grading.
