READ THE SOURCE DOCUMENT! Then ask specific questions! Yes there are tons of nuanced ways to take advantage of the system, and this is a great place to learn that. But AE bidding is pretty straight forward, especially with all of the hints/tips/tricks that DALPA puts out! I know I’ll get a lot of flack for this. It’s just “new guys asking questions”. But damn, I would have been embarrassed to ask this simple stuff. It’s all information readily available to every delta pilot!

Oh, and while you’re on here hoping some anonymous dude accurately answers your contract question, some PWA ninja junior to you is learning how to get your line/schedule/seat/etc.

Seriously, why the angst? Scroll past, FFS. Feel better about yourself while watching the noobs screw themselves with their ignorance. I get a little frustration at thread drift, but everybody has to start somewhere. Some of these old farts have forgotten how much nuance there is to learn.

Besides, does it occur to some of you there are not just 200 New Hires a month, but a lot of applicants as well? They come here to learn and ask questions. And rightfully so.

Believe me, this place and chit chat are echo chambers built with 10ft of concrete.

There’s some good info here from time to time and the arguments are entertaining.

What happened to Drum??
