That is correct. * turns into X and they are swappable.

How about an apples to apples comparison for once?

My assumption is that he's still far more humble than you and Gearjerk though. I mean, since you want to rattle your saber like a warrior just so everyone can ultimately see just how awesome you are, we might as well compare you as men.

Hey guys,

For about the last two years Compass has allowed Delta pilots to utilize the flight attendent jumpseats for commuting purposes. Thats up to three pilot jumpseaters per flight. So far this has been a one way agreement, with no offical reciprocity on mainline Delta flights. The union has indicated that if some sort of reciprocal agreement does not come into being, the ability for Delta pilots to use Compass flight attendent jumpseats could get shut down.

If you get a chance, bug some of the base/system chief pilots and send an email to your reps. Thanks

In case you missed the memo, I'm totally on board with removing the notes from the forum. I've even said that I believe ACL and 80 might have saved whoever posted the notes job. I even have a pretty good idea as to why the company wanted the notes removed. So, you are ****ing up the wrong tree.

What you are missing is the point that I was making: In my opinion it is not necessary to equalize or marginalize the deeds or actions of a Medal of Honor recipient -- for any reason. If it were me, I would simply say the guy is Superman or something and move on. While I understood what you were tying to say, I stopped reading after I read your comment that Sgt. Meyer was "just doing his job."

Your above post is off the mark. Aim first before you fire next time.

I'd like to think 100%. I'm guessing less than 25%.
