The CAL pilots have their own private forum that you have to pay to be a member of and be a CAL or XJT pilot. Yesterday, someone made a post that one of the pilots that is still in his first year, but doing IOE now for the 777, has a wife that was just diagnosed with ovarian cancer. The pilot is originally from XJT. If anyone knows anything about ovarian cancer, you will know that it usually not detected until it is pretty much too late. My aunt died of this about one month after being diagnosed. This guy wants to take his wife to Austrailia for some sort of experimental treatment, if she makes it to the first week of March. Well the IRO on one of his flights made a post on the "crackpipe" (a nickname for the forum) about the situation asking if a paypal account could be set up for anyone that wants to make donations. The new IAH union rep said he would do it. As of last night they already had $7400. That's in one day, actually just a matter of hours! I'm sure they will end up with well over $10,000. There are alot of people that say the "crackpipe" is just a bunch of whiners and complainers, (which some can be sometimes), but when it comes down to it, they really are a good bunch. Just wanted to let all those other CAL wives/girlfriends know their husbands work with alot of nice people!
