Over on Pprune link there's a picture of Rihanna wearing a DL Captain's and two smiling Rear Admirals. Is there a story?

Was it the one where that's the only thing she's wearing? If so, I can explain.

Why are our dues dollars supporting Donatelli's dithering? Why does he always react? Why doesn't he control the message?

Where is the leadership?
We don't negotiate until there is an emergency. Time critical. Fleeting opportunity. Just be patient....you'll get your 8433.

It looks like DALPA's former Vice Chairman (elected) is now an Executive Administrator (appointed).

Is there any such thing as "new blood" at DALPA? Or is everyone who wants to solve managment's problems or doesn't like to fly, simply recycled and forever fed on our dues money teat?

Yep. But only if it's self-funded by selling our (soon-to-be-massive) profit sharing. It's ok, though. We'll get 'em next time

I think that was her DAL 777 charter for her world tour, the biggest problem they encountered was getting the counter rotating chrome spokes on the main gear.....

Rihanna chartered a Delta 777 for a fast "world tour".
7 shows in 7 cities in 7 days I think. Something like that.

No offense meant, but I'm pretty sure the code is you worry about your schedule and let everyone else worry about their own...

That's why you asked, right? To make sure we're using the highest 2004 rate to restore?
What is the answer?
