Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?
Maybe they know something they aren't telling us like they have moved up deliveries for the 330 and will not be parking the 747's. Maybe they will throw out 100 CA and 100 FO vacancies on the airplane in a couple short bids. If they did that and had vacancies on both the 747 and 777, we might see it go that junior. Maybe the MOAB is coming here shortly, been waiting on that sucker now for 8 years.
When NWA first got the A330 every flight was 2 CA/1FO since none of the FO's were typed. One CA would be in the left seat for T/O, the other for landing.
Also, I am not sure if it is still correct, but I believe every Captain is technically qualified in the right seat but can only be re-scheduled into that seat away from base.

There are probably some odd ball situations that can lead to this with the company attempting to maintain schedule integrity, but I think they probably all end up with some kind of premium pay for the affected pilots. Whoever the pilots are, they all need to contact the MEC Scheduling Committee on Monday and report the issue so those guys can audit the trip for PWA compliance. If they don't, they are doing a disservice to us all.
I saw recently that we can now go through KCM in plain clothes.
Does this apply to nonrev as well? Do we need to be commuting to/from work or is any travel now fair game? I've looked around and can't seem to find anywhere that says we can't use it for regular nonrev.
Anyone know for sure and preferably have a source to back it up?

Here is a authoritative source as to whether you need to be working a flight or not. Doesn't look like you need to be working a flight. Remember, it's not that you are skipping TSA screening, you are using a alternative form of screening. (http://www.knowncrewmember.org/Pages/Crewmembers.aspx):
Q: Does a crewmember need to be working a flight in order to use the KCM access point?
A: No. TSA headquarters’ states that a crewmember must be currently employed with a KCM participating airline, on active status and in the airline’s KCM database. TSA security officers are not responsible for determining whether a crewmember is working a flight in order to use a KCM access point. Please remember, a crewmember may be randomly selected to undergo additional screening, as there is a random screening element with all Risked Based Security (RBS) screening programs.

It hasn't been changed yet to wear plain clothes, the date is Jan 13th, 2015.

The company has a lot of motivation to prevent it from becoming a violation. With Richard's "Rules of the Road" (it exhorts us to "keep your deals"), no way the company can answer the mail on ignoring the contract.
Wonder if HK's resignation is in any way related to this rumored settlement?
There is nothing about working the flight.

Thanks Sailing. I was also unaware of the liquid restriction.
