I will let the news filer out as it appears most do not want a heads up! (For those who do, I have your e-mail addresses and will fire off random thoughts accordingly)

BTW most of this stuff is leaked by design, do not be so stupid to think otherwise.

I'm ready

It is interesting that this came out though. I just think that the posting is a error on someone's part. The words are not written by DAL. It is horribly worded.

If you look back over the last three years most of the things talked about are starting to come true.

MD-90's
DC-9's 742 getting parked
ANC closing
GUM as a possibility (BW admitted it)
NWA merger
stopping hiring
looking at a furlough
decision not to furlough
LGA deal
JFK terminal deals (publicly talked about by RA after the fact that T-8 was an option)
Other strategies

I totally understand that most pilots time lines to not mesh up with that of DAL. Near term to us is a month or two whereas to a corporation near term is three to five years. Lot of the items on here appear to be conjure and false at the time because they are in the near term to the company not to us.

Look back at this thread in 2015 and realize how many of the items being talked about over the last 18 month are a reality.
JFK
777-300
C-Series or another 100 seat jet
MD-90
744 parked
defined plan for narrow body replacement
leadership change at DAL
C2012 et al
DCI and their evolution.

Just pointing out that most things that come out here generally happen in some form. Just not on most people's time lines.

Point taken.....I am just doing it for my own sanity because I found myself going on these highs and lows
But, the thought of hiring gets me riled up...Bring it on boys!

And I took the time to make some points!

We are in a good spot at DAL, that has not changed. Planes are full and our product is slowly improving.

Guys:

First post here, so if/when I mess up, please be gentle.

Regarding Call in Honest, etc... do the FNWA F/As have it in their contract? Just wondering.
