Actually I am more Libertarian. I couldn't care less about abortion or other staunch conservative issues. I don't want to pay for your abortion, but if you want one, that is between you, God and your conscience. Anyway, I actually think you and I would have a great time on a layover. As far as the other thing goes....

Funny I just heard same thing from SW management type last night. So this is second hand at best. I did not believe him at the time.
If true, Delta has known for quite some time according to this person. Explains delays, no hiring, not filling positions on 717. I have to give the company credit. They did a great job making us believe the 717 were going to come here on time. Hopefully, none of it is true.

Just a fwiw.

I don't buy it. RA doesn't take kindly to being messed with. Penalties or no penalties. I call rumor busted.

So...new "Pilot Sick Verification Form" is on the street.
In order for your sick time to be "verified," here's what you must provide some pretty personal health info to the company.
Once filled out, you must send it to the company via email. We have no idea who will be reviewing it, or who will have access to it (personal health information).
This is all absolute BULLSH!T. Don't want to give that info? Well, for your 5th sick call each year, they are contractually permitted to demand that info--and more--via your health records directly from your own doctor.
Another HUGE concession, not to mention an egregious breach of privacy.
None of the wording or requirements to "verify" sickness are contractual. I'm curious to see if ALPA allows this nonsense to stand. I'm guessing they won't make a peep.

And I don't see why it'd bother RA. The planes are coming after summer, they'd get money for it and they'll probably get relief on section 1 since they've already acquired the 76 seaters.
