The cascade of error messages and phantom violations is probably a mile long.
If they can't fix it today, DALPA's reaction will indeed be interesting.
Once again, we will probably be "constructive" and get zilch in return.
BTW - Delta is not the only airline having computer "issues" with this scheduling rules transition.

My guess -- The computer is choking on FAR 117.

Doesn't bode well for the trip construction in January. I think there is gonna be a lot of sitting around in hotels due to the rest requirements.

Check,
Cool video.
But, can you imagine what a wood body stringed instrument would do in those conditions?
Also, she's more of that LDS Church "forbidden fruit" which IMO just makes her more attractive.

The 88/90 fleet was singled out as the fleet with the most issues.

Talked to a couple reps last month about this. Expect more long layovers and credit time as they work to figure out new rules. The issue is not the current trip construction as our PWA is more in line than note with 117. The big issue is IROPs and the flexibility to handle them. No more legal to start legal to finish is going to cause the most issues during IROPs. Expect reroutes and Inverse assignments to be used to manage the schedule for the next few months.

Meaning more pay for everyone ... I figure Douglas "issues" result in about 10% of the pay in the other narrow body categories as everyone else enjoys white and green slips to cover ... Nothing better than a HSV or BHM short overnight that pays you between 10:30 and 21:00

And you're right. The whole Mormon purity thing is somehow incredibly alluring.
Refreshing change from the Miley Cyrus approach to female music careers.
P.S. If you create a Pandora channel based on her music it plays really great stuff. If you like dubstep violin and that sort of thing. David Garrett, etc. I enjoy pop music and rock and roll adapted to strings.
