Anyone see anything in the WSJ or elsewhere about this?

I was wondering why he up and left so quickly.
Just heard that he was escorted off the property. It wasn't his choice to leave.

Are they immune from the economy that's holding us back? Or are they just not as big on capacity discipline?
Friend of mine got one yesterday as well.

I had guessed previously he left for another reason, but had heard or read somewhere recently that he was under investigation for trading improprieties. Innocent 'til proven guilty.

Yes he was. We will hear more about this in the future. It was related to something that occured pre DAL.

No. I'm not aware of any Delta guys with apps in at UAL, but odds are there will be some.

Default Flightcrew Member Duty and Rest Requirements

Here's an interesting tidbit from the new regs.

I read this as I want to check my schedule as soon as I can so my duty day starts. Or that we will never have to check our schedule and the schedulers will call us.


A4A asked whether a requirement in the collective bargaining agreement to check a schedule or calendar, or to acknowledge a trip assignment, is considered duty.
Section 117.3 defines duty as ‘‘any task that a flightcrew member performs as required by the certificate holder
* * *’’ Thus, if a certificate holder requires that a flightcrew member check a schedule or calendar, or acknowledge a trip assignment, then the flightcrew member’s compliance with that requirement would be considered duty. The collective bargaining agreement has no impact on this analysis, as this agreement simply provides the legal basis for the certificate holder to require a flightcrew member to perform certain actions
