I hate...Wow..thanks Keith for sharing your comment. I hate to ask what year was that when you had the chance to go up the cockpit. LOL I am certain that I may have been one of your crew if you had flown that much to LAX. You mentioned PR104..which is our MNL-SFO. I fly that a lot because my parents live in the Bay Area. Get to spend time with them at least twice a month. Yes..good old days Keith!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17852195096027327610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7943130501761270557.post-8394994517347665152013-09-11T04:15:33.542-04:002013-09-11T04:15:33.542-04:00I read your blog continuously and i like your blog...I read your blog continuously and i like your blogs and photos<a href="http://bluebirdflightacademy.com" rel="nofollow">.</a><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16560014565611470691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7943130501761270557.post-4667347268608914852013-09-09T01:56:22.604-04:002013-09-09T01:56:22.604-04:00Ah yes, good old Philippine Airlines. If being a p...Ah yes, good old Philippine Airlines. If being a passenger counts, my first 100 hours were logged between flight PR 102, 103, and 104 service between Manila and Los Angeles (or vise versa). Truth be told my aviation heritage stated with them. My mom worked at PAL as an accountant when their headquarters was literally at the end of the street where she grew up back in the 70's. When I was about 11, I mustered the guts to ask the flight purser if I can see the cockpit. My wish was granted during the stop-over at KHNL. A kind flight engineer gave me a tour of their perch, and I can say I got bIt by something larger than a bug. Now, I wonder if this is part of their way to keep the "UM" entertained during the stop over.<br /><br />Sorry to ramble on, but seeing the PAL uniform brought me back to a time of my life that I'm not sure my children will get to experience themselves post 9/11. Do airlines even allow children to fly by themselves internationally anymore?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15613251844327563088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7943130501761270557.post-48477070555912642902013-09-08T08:24:14.063-04:002013-09-08T08:24:14.063-04:00Thanks so much Eric!
