I’m arguing the fact of....how could he even get past said verification that the airline should be doing to prevent this stuff. That’s all.... It's got nothing to do with insulting your intelligence, I was pointing out the part of his fraud was faking GA hours; there's not really any way an airline could check those and if someone had colluded with him to do that, even more so.

January 21, 20215 yr Hilarious 😆 I’ve seen a few of those registrations myself. And then there are those with the 0747400 phone numbers!

TBC or Training Block Charlie , thats BAs training centre with all their TRI's and TRE's. speaks volumes... Edited January 21, 20215 yr by fluffyflops
January 21, 20215 yr It's a pity the lines are not painted yellow.. with stop lines for Range Rover, BMW, Micra.. etc Actually, I think 787 ACE has a sense of humour - the 787 is a widebody after all. 🍻 Mark Robinson Part-time Ferroequinologist Author of FLIGHT: A near-future short story (ebook available on amazon) I made the baby cry - A2A Simulations L-049 Constellation Sky Simulations MD-11 V2.2 Pilot.

January 22, 20215 yr Bless him. He probably thought that he needed extra space for the wings.

January 22, 20215 yr Looking at the car types and the reg plates, I think there's definitely a bit of compensatory Freudian stuff on display in that car park. Alan Bradbury Check out my youtube flight sim videos: Here
January 22, 20215 yr 787 ACE's parking joke I can totally understand centring the car over the line, but I'm at a loss over the tag line of SF04 EVA regarding short haul command. Does that mean the guy just wants to engage the AP after 400 feet AGL and disengage it before landing, thus building up loads of hours monitoring systems on transatlantic flights and hardly any hours actually flying the plane? I presume it pays way more money though..

January 22, 20215 yr I’m not sure of the pay structure at that particular airline but long haul probably will pay more. Its also a lifestyle choice, travelling to far away places and getting off to explore and relax is nice. On the other hand doing short haul means you get home to the family every night. There’s no right answer, short haul can mean very early starts and lots of them, but long haul has time zones and night flights to contend with. The other thing with long haul is you tend to get a more fancy jet to fly ! 787 captain. Previously 24 years on 747-400.Technical advisor on PMDG 747 legacy versions QOTS 1 , FS9 and Aerowinx PS1.
