Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?
Hey Perry Mason, it might be a violation of ALPA policy. Why don't you wait for the machinery to do it's thing before spouting off about things you obviously know NOTHING about?

It's funny how in one post you can chastise me in one post for posting a conclusory opinion, but yet you have no problem doing the exact same thing in your response.
Consistency doesn't appear to be one of your strengths.
Thanks for you attempted lesson on venue. Where did you learn it?

You asked for case law, you asked for facts, you even posted a really nice explanation of what venue is. So, once again, take a look at the United case I posted and you should come to an understanding of what Delta and the court would do.

Always make the safety call. Food is just as important as rest.
You cannot be scheduled for a break in duty less than 9:00 (or more, depending upon the following duty period) under the PWA. FARs require at least 10:00 before an FDP, i.e., duty period with an operating leg.
One other thing I think would decrease safety is CDO, stand ups, high speeds etc. I bring this up because my gut says we gave this away. Guys don't get the rest needed before doing these type of trips, whether they like them or not. "Some guys like them" is the response I received when talking to my reps about it = most likely done deal. We shall see but my experience with them is usually unsafe. You count on rest that you may or may not get. People who choose to fly them want to maximize their time (side business, other obligations etc.) show up already tired from a days work counting on at least 6 hrs behind the door that may not happen. When it doesn't happen, it is usually due to wx, mtc, creating more fatigue.
He also compared CDOs to some of our current all-nighters, e.g., ANC - ATL. These all operate around the same timeframe and do NOT include a 3+ hour power nap in a hotel room
I had to admit that he had a point.
Flying in such a situation is NOT legal.

You also imply that the United case would have no relevance in another court? Is that what you really believe, counselor?

The upside of the TA will be inversely proportional to the number of posts here by the usual ALPA suspects extolling its virtues and berating those who question its provisions.
And you're right, I'll leave the spouting off to you. You're quite good at it.
Standing by for the sales job.
