The collapse of the regionals, and rise of Mainline, is well underway.

Delta paying down high interest debt. Hope they set some cash aside for Retro checks too

A retired DAL Pilot asked me to help him track down his flight records (digital logbook) or whatever DAL Keeps track of. I know active guys can just log onto DBMS for all of their hours but any idea how a retired guy could do it or possibly a company POC?

Please PM me if you have a specific phone number or something best not shared with all.

Thanks Scoop

Endeavor Payload Opt JS

If an endeavor CR-200 is payload optimized, will/should/can they kick off/deny a Delta pilot jumpseater? Any Captain discretion involved/allowed? Asking for a friend...

Thanks in advance!

JS is not protected in WB. It’s also the CRJ200, I’ve seen jumpseat unavailable even on non PO flights due to the (horrible) WB design of the aircraft. Best bet is speak with crew and see what math they can do to make it work, I’m sure most guys will give it a good shot for you.

It’s become ever more difficult to jumpseat on a crj200 since they added the extra weight to pax and bags this year. And endeavor has never had the jumpseaters weight figured into basic empty weight.

It's the -200. Sometimes you just can't win with that thing. You can play around with the numbers a lot, but in the end, you still have to fit within legal limitations. I obviously don't remember the details (probably bringing a bag on board instead of checking it), but I remember once having to deny a jumpseater because if we did it one way we were in CG but overweight, if we did it the other way we were in weight but out of CG, and burning fuel on the ground worked on top end weight and CG but put us below min fuel for takeoff.

I didn't work for EDV though, so I don't know how the jumpseat protections and flowback work for them.
