Exactly my point re: LGBP. how do you sell a newbie on coming to DAL vice UAL if he has that difference over the course of a career to compare? Financial planning 101.

A similar trajectory wipes out any pay advantage if it isn't front loaded. TVM and all that.

Three questions:
1. If regional flying YOY is decreasing, why then did we bother allowing more jumbo RJs in exchange for 717s and fewer CRJ-200s if they were going to go away anyways? We haven't gotten any 717s yet, so no new super premium regional jets are allowed, so no reason to drop 50 seaters unless they were not wanted anyways and/or we could live without them anyways, right?
2. DCI decreasing, what about jumbo RJs, did they decrease? Did they break that out?
3. Related to question 3, if for some reason they're cutting or reducing jumbo RJ use... is that a bad sign for our management team to purchase expensive new RJs and then not use them while turning around and ordering 70 more in December 2012 ? http://seattletimes.com/html/busines...ombardier.html

Killing Trees
Brushing up a little bit for CQ. I have the following books open to work through ONE scenario 
:
1. DIG
2. FOM
3. Vol 1
4. FCTM
5. MEL/TOPP
6. QRH
7. FCTM Addendum
8. Vol 2
9. ODM
It really is incredible that we need to have this many books open to work through a scenario. I can't wait until we get tablets to store all this stuff - there's not enough glareshield space to organize everything. Maybe you Airbus guys have room to lay all this out, but for us mere mortals, it's like sorting through the stock room at Amazon...

Don't see it. I beg of you, for all things holy, stay away. Worst movie I've seen in a long, long time. Don't see it, rent it, borrow it. If you're on a layover in DAY, and it's on HBO, change the channel to QVC. Run away.

Don't do it.
