People... please contact your union reps and demand the union work with the FAA to force the company to repeal their new questionable FDP policy and remove E.G. from his position of authority. The company now expects us to accept any FDP extension necessary and has stated a refusal of the extension is now considered a fatigue event. This was never the intent of part 117 and should not be allowed to stand.. don't let our snake of a flight ops VP and his chronies intimidate and manipulate us. Please remember the FDP extension is your prerogative and only yours, do not be scared of our cowardly management.

Flying the MD80 out of LGA and flying at Allegiant have almost nothing in common except the plane. It's a completely different job. Right now Allegiant actually pays more in some seats/years than Delta on the 80 but after the new contract, if they make more then they deserve it.

There are plenty of people here/interested in coming here who would be competitive at a legacy. But why commute, wait (most likely) longer to upgrade, and spend half of the month in hotels when you could be home every night and still make good money?

If I lived in SLC, I would try “big league” for Delta. If I lived in Sarasota, I would try “big league” for Allegiant. If I didn't mind commuting, I'd try "big league" for the company that gives me the easiest commute. Is it that strange that some people don’t want to commute to NYC to fly an 80?
