Does it access alt.binaries.food?

no binaries at all.

currently: http://www.hotze.com/index.php?page=newsfeed-peering

by the end of the year I expect to carry Big8 plus some local groups
minus some junk groups (but still without binaries).

It still sounds as stupid the 2nd time around. In fact, more so.

In this day and age of 'Cockpit Management' how long would Anthonys
new buddy last (outside MFS)


Actually, there are some rat ass companies flying jets around that fit
this
perfectly.

Are you saying there's hope for Anthony?



No, he'd have to leave his apartment to go flying....

Thank you. We thought it was only here in AZ, where a lot of
aspiring airline pilots come to put in time since there are so
many good-weather flying days here. Nothing worse than being in
the pattern at an uncontrolled airport and hearing, "FDVHUdscr
Trafffick, Cessna ^%#s9, &&VSs, Gobbledegoop 1 mile, VFSDGXCxss,
FDVHUdscr Traffick."

Huh? 1 mile WHERE? How do these people pass the oral exam? Do they
understand US? Do they care?

You ought to hear some US pilots abroad.....
I'm sure that's true, and US pilots abroad should be able to
communicate clearly in languages spoken there, too.

meant their knowledge and command of ICAO terms.



For instance, the crew who were told to descend to 3,000' QNH 1018.
"Could we have that in inches please?"
OK, descend 36,000" 1018...

Uh yes, but down here in old Europe, we, all to often, get a Texan
airline pilot swallowing the last or middle syllable. I guess Pidgin
English *is* the true aviation language :P



Yep!

We tried to teach you Americans, but you refused to learn :-)

Well, you should have tried some of the techniques you used to teach
english elsewhere, then. Death or english was always a persuasive
technique.

We had much greater respect for the Native Americans than that, and
often recruited them.


Yeah, right.


You were just peachy everywhere you went.

I wasn't talking about north america..


Remember? you said you failed there in any case.

There's an oral for type ratings. Also, the litle chat you have before any
flight test is an oral. The examiner is supposed to pay particular
attention to the ones you got wrong on the written..

But as I tell all my FO's (whether they speak English of not, IN
ENGLISH), "If you make us go around, you won't fly another leg for the
rest of the day." I only say this when they're at 30DME from the field
and still at 18000 Ft.

Well, THAT's real helpful for ensuring safety.

If I'm riding, let everyone know before we take off, so I can get off.

If going around is needed, I would prefer to go around, without fear of
punishment for the FO.

But since you are posting without a real identity, you probably only fly
Microsoft flight simulators, so it really does not matter what you are
posting.

So if he were to make up a "real" sounding name, perhaps something like
Jim in NC, that would automatically make him a bonafide pilot?

Yes.
