If we are PS deviating from DH on the front side using company business, are we allowed to check-in online and change our seat to Economy Comfort, or is that a no-no?

I hope you all have a great day, where ever you may be.

Oh, and what's the over/under we see Tebow in the game tonight??
Thanks Timbo! Hanging with an AA buddy of mine and his family. Man, our merger looks better and better every day. I'm thankful for all y'all.

Take the time and look through the trips assigned in the last few days. You will find very few GS's. The only category out of a dozen I looked at with any significant numbers is the 777A category in ATL. One pilot posted about assignments like his category was really short. The assignment given out in his category was for a trip reporting 20 minutes later.

Can anyone explain why the mandatory retirement numbers posted here on the ALPC Delta page have changed drastically from the numbers posted a few weeks ago?

For example:
2013 was 102, is now 50
2017 was 358, is now 260
2028 was 477, is now 179
2032 was 321, is now 22

The numbers posted now are significantly lower. How is this possible?
