I know saying things used to be better in the old days has been a pastime for basically as long as talking has been around, but I honestly do think that judging everything/everyone by how much money it/they make(s) has become much more pervasive over the course of my own life. I have a word for that, but I’ll save it for our probably thankfully non-existent politics forum. Hope you’re happy(ish) at the new job; I just booked a flight.

Glad you got the job. Family has to come before personal aspirations sometimes, and good on you for realizing it. Not many do. Congrats!

Take a look into the cockpit when you board your next aircraft.
Noooooo thank you. Doing that with my beard, which is straight out of the ISIS handbook, is grounds for immediate violent execution.

Great news, Dave! Thanks for letting us know and for keeping this place going, as always.
Also, completely unrelated, I am now taking trains and buses everywhere. Completely unrelated.

In an odd coincidence, I’m about to start flying again for work. A lot. And I haven’t been on a plane since maybe 2013.
So, Dave … you’re really good at that code stuff, right?

As a Captain, I block that. Coup game reference? Jokes aside, I wish you great success @Neumannium and glad to see you are still posting the best writing on the internet. Please keep the airplanes from crashing, too!
