October 25, 20178 yr I was wondering if American has any Boeing pilots stationed at Charlotte or if they're all former US Air guys? Silly question maybe but I like flying my NGX out of my FSDT KCLT. Close to home . Vic green
October 25, 20178 yr If I understand you correctly, there are plenty of AAL B738 flights out of KCLT https://flightaware.com/live/airport/KCLT/scheduled?;offset=0;sort=ASC;order=ident

October 26, 20178 yr They do. I'm based out of PHL. I do know they are getting rid of the 75/76 in CLT soon. Busdriver (Bill) KPHL 8086K @5.4GHz, EVGA GTX 1080 TI FTW3, DDR4 16GB @4000MHz, Samsung 970 NVMe (M.2) Windows 10 Pro, Samsung M.2 1TB for P3D V4.5
October 26, 20178 yr I guess the "former USAir guys" stipulation confuses me. I can't even guess why this information, would have any impact on you being able to fly an NGX out of KCLT. I hope you find what your looking for.

He was still flying when I retired in January of 2016. He had a Piedmont tattoo on his shoulder. He was hilarious. He used to stand on the jetway greeting passengers with fake buck teeth.
