astonishingly i neglected to inspect said metre
actually the pilot was so bad on the flight back, that you could have done a better job, and actually in retrospect maybe i could have too, his landing was that bad

Well considering I fly on average 120 hours per month, I probably do a better job! And sometimes my hobbs meter doesn't even work.

Trying to book my tickets to Japan, United is all sold out, Air Canada is available, you have not seen **** service until you fly Air Canada. Last time to Japan on A/C, the in flight movies were dead both ways, you had the choice of chicken or fish, but they were all out of chicken, and I dont eat fish.
I was gonna fly business class, but they want 7k for business, is it worth 7 times the cost of economy?
I thought SFO was a nice airport, except for the slack *** baggage handlers missing the conveyor belt with the luggage and letting it drop 8 feet to the ground..
Vancouver is a useless airport, they killed that Polish guy there this last year.

on the way back i had an air canada ticket, but the plane said untied....
how long is the flight to japan? last time we flew back from france, we had the whole deal, it was hot, crowded, crying baby, fish (eating fish on an airline is not a great idea, IMO), it seriously sucked. although for $7000 i think they can go fly a kite.

We only fly on Southwest. Never a delay. Never a cancellation. I got deathly sick in LasVegas once, and left the airport in an ambulance. Southwest put us up in the hotel the Crews use. We left the next day when they changed our expired tickets for new tickets, no charge. All very nice people.
Any company mechanic, or FAA inspecter can keep a plane on the ground or in phase dock by not signing off a release form. It is not political or dificult to understand. No need to whine to a supervisor. Just don't sign it off.
Then if the supervisor wants to sign it off, fine, its his problem. Keep a camera in your car for such occasions and take a picture to cover yourself, and move on to the next aircraft. Southwest has only Boeing 737s. All the same spares, all the same books, all the same procedures. Fewer mistakes lower down time. Just my opinion. I could be wrong.

Air Canada was fine for me. Flew from Victoria to Toronto with them and it was the best flight of the trip. Of course, that could only be because we flew with the Luftwaffe, err...Lufthansa the rest of the time. Angry German women should never become stewardesses. All they do is bitch at you like you're bothering them if you even ask for a drink. They wouldn't even let me see my friend. They f'ed up and double booked a seat, so they gave him first class instead. I go up the stairs (because it was a 747) and the lady yells at me for going up there because "Zey are sleepink!" It was approximately 4pm at the time...
Even the shady Russian airline we flew with from Frankfurt to Moscow was better.
