As an aside, for those that entertain the idea of a contract overseas airline position, most foreign airlines prefer a paper logbook with a signature on each page. They apparently don't trust electronic logs.

I keep a paper log, although it has been about three years since I updated it. My airline has a record of all the flying I have done and I print it out periodically. For my personal flying in my own airplane I'm afraid I'm a little sloppy. I keep an informal record of each flight which is kept...

Maybe MDT wasn't even in the airplane database. Someone else may have mentioned that but a great deal of this thread was pretty pointless.

How do we know that the woman herself didn't create such a scene that she ****ed off the CBP agent? Some arrogant passenger gets in my face about something I might be tempted have the last word. After all the news story only has her word on it.

Ironically there are rumblings about raising or eliminating the mandatory retirement age in 121.

LOL, Never cared for layovers there I must say.
