Keep working.

Of course there is, and it says it in the article.
On the one hand you have a conspiracy theory, and on the other the likihood of mistakenly flying into a mountain. Even aircraft with much better technology have managed this...look at American Airlines 965.
New roster time.
30/12 93 MEL-LAX
31/12 94 LAX-MEL
13/12 10 DXB-MEL
30/12 93 MEL-LAX
31/12 94 LAX-MEL
Does that mean you issue a dual NYE PA on the 94? Seriously though, the turn around from an early AM 30th arrival to a late 31st PM departure seems very short! Those trips must be very tiring.
Christmas at home!. How many have you had over the years?
New roster time.
I'm on leave until the 25th of November.
The Mike Pence plane belongs to the "new" Eastern Air Lines that purchased the IP etc from the old group. IIRC this airline is a charter operation with some RPT to destinations around the Caribbean from MIA. Eastern Air LinesEastern Air Lines, no longer in existence, had plane crash in Bolivia in 1985.
There's no plausible explanation why it crashed.
The following link has background and info relating to last expedition to find answers:

A vagary of your rostering system or have you requested leave? That's a massive break if it is planned rostering.
Considering the role, first day back would be quite an adrenaline rush if you knit for a hobby.

Im on the 94 18/1. But as you know from my previous posts I will be wishing for a "splash and dash" into SYD. So I think you should Ok!
as I won't be around for too many more cycles.
Neither of those are appealing. I'll just quietly leave.water salute? Will you get a twitter post like Dooley?
Is this a function of the radar physically "seeing" things, or that the pilot chooses the settings to show what they are interested in, suppressing returns that are just clutter and noise for the job at hand?Our radar doesn't see birds. Doesn't even see other aircraft unless you feel like playing Hornet pilot...and even then it doesn't see them all of the time.

What weather features can you see? Clouds, I guess, but are they differentiated at all? More subtle things like jetstreams and turbulence?
As for other aircraft, there must be some way of knowing where they are located. Do you trust in ATC, look out the window, keep track on the radio ("Breaker, breaker, this is Roo Two, what ya haulin', good buddy?"), or do you just plow on through God's wide night sky out over the Pacific, relying on the hand of the Almighty to keep everyone apart?
Christmas. Everything is shut. Whatever is open is twice the price. If I had to work, I liked being in Singapore or Hong Kong, as they were just open as usual. In most places these days, there are few of us in town, the cabin crew are elsewhere. It can be a very quiet day. The worst two that I can remember are being in Sydney on standby (I lived in Melbourne at the time). A call out would have been welcome. Or Perth. Perth was just shut, and was the dullest place I've ever seen on Christmas day.
If I have to be away, I'd much rather be flying than having the day off in a random port.
Makes for turd of a day for us, so I'll avoid it if I can.
