Dear L-1011 Pilots,
Some of you may know I was a DC-8 program for a long time before accepting the task of L-1011 CP. The DC-8 has always been my passion, but the possibility to help developing a program made me join the L-1011 and I leave the program in a very good shape with a 37% of growth and many names very capable of assuming the duties as CP. I would like to thank you all for the time I was L-1011 CP.
For the DC-8 people,
If I can make half of the achievements I had in the L-1011 I would be more than happy!
Happy Flying!!

Awesome Bruno Welcome to the DC-8. I remember we had many chats about it when I was CP. I have a Delta DC8 manual on my bookshelf if you need anything I'd be happy to scan you some information. Don you said L-1011 sim. I'd fly down there monday for some sim time I love my benefits.
