I'd love to bid the 7ER but the lack of intercom use makes me think twice.

there’s no latching on the intercom so you have to PTT everything and that gets to be a pain in the terminal area.

the latching intercom switch and ability to Bluetooth some music to your headset makes the Airbus fleet very attractive

Of course I know I'm not going to change anyone's mind on this.

Good weather seems to be helping keep things under control. Now the food lines at the airports are another thing...

most of the jets have the hot mic switch, but there are a few stragglers that still require the rubber-band 6900 modification.

Internal Recs.

Anybody happen to know how internal Recs are working nowadays? Per the Delta Pilot Recruiting Facebook page the email system will not work anymore.

I have two friends ready to submit internals, so my guess is they put in the Rec via Airline apps and it gets pulled for score ? Or how would it work ? Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
