Looks like we are back to mushroom-farm management of the pilot group.

Ironically that's been my complaint with previous MECs.

I've only been through a few contracts here, but isn't this rather typical coming up to pre-contract negotiations? Basically doesn't the company "tighten up the screws" by exploiting some of the weaker areas in our contract as a way to build cheap negotiating capital? (i.e. less attractive trips/lower upgrade priority when deadheading)

Just hypothesizing here.

Heads up with more and more 321 coming online at Delta and other airlines. The wake turbulence from this thing is no joke. Encountered it yesterday and had full scale deflection with no response for a couple seconds.
My top three wake turbulence encounters have all been 321s under calm winds

I have a domicile layover on my upcoming rotation, but I am a commuter. Will I get a hotel room from Delta if I request it?

The answer is yes. You can look in the contract every once in a while for answers to questions like this. There’s a copy saved on your tablet. Doing it will probably answer future questions you’ll have also.

Yes, but questions asked and answered on the forums enlighten all of us. I for one am all for basic questions being posted. I also think guys should review the PWA and SRH also.
