The letter from crew resources says that they will likely displace ER on the next bid. They will not backfill the ER on this one. Remember, we still have 757s being retired just not as many as planned.

Default 777 Recency Report Time?

Does Recency sim report time the same as any other normal period? Can't find on the Delta Training website if it says reduced report time or not? Thanks

Technically, yes, same report time, but what I always do is call my IP a day or two prior, coordinate a later, more realistic, show time. Nobody needs to brief for 90 minutes for a recency ride.

He may ask you if you are flying a lot but not getting any landings (greedy captain tools!) or sitting reserve -not- flying a lot. The non-flying guys will usually get more time in the box, but it's all training, not evaluating.

For 10 bucks per mo., you get real time trip alerts sent to your phone.... trip alert sent to you the moment it is added to open time. You set the parameters of the trips you want to receive.

According to page 3 of the AE "All Pilots" Memo on Deltanet, we are opening two new 330B domiciles.

BTL (Battle Creek, MI) and SEB (Shaba, Libya).

Wonder how junior Libya is going to go?

Make sure your preferences are updated!

Yep, the 7ER planner says the domestic 767-300s are going away over the next year. June 2016 staffing projection has reductions in A & B positions in NYC, ATL and DTW (MSP grows slightly). The biggest cut is NYC which loses 30 7ER B positions.
