Happy Tuesday everyone. Home for 2 days then back to work Thursday. The overtime check will help the bottom line since my wife has no sick time (aka $$$) when the baby comes. Just sucks having to be gone this much. Oh well. I asked for this line of work, I shall survive.
Are you flying the Cirrus? Just looked on flightaware and that seems to match.
I fly a Dornier 328Jet for an OH-based company. We're waiting somewhat patiently to hear about a contract we bid for that would fly May - Sept, the slow months. If we don't get it, I have a bad feeling we'll be furloughing again. No matter what happens, it still beats the 7 years I spent flying for Mesa.
