Re: A380 at SFO

I got the first line that i remember from german class 16 years ago. "Yes, that is very good". You'll have to translate the rest.

Nothing like flying with a Captain that is correcting you while you are on the radio.

"Yes! That is very good! I like that very much! That is also pretty!! Thank you for the pictures!"

The German blood runs thick in these veins! :?

P.s. the second sentence litteraly translates as: "I have that very like". Germans!!! #-o

Re: A380 at SFO

Didn't do much "free time" up there. I was flying five to eight hours a day, seven days a week for as much time as I could without timing out. Then it was hop in our own airplanes and head out to play up on the Rivers. Noatak, Kelley, and Kobuk. Or, jumpseat out and go see the real world for a while.

Had a lot of 1,400+ flight hour years up there.

I would not want to be stuck in Kotz unable to fly.
