Whew, given I haven't flown the shuttle, been the head Blue Angels pilot or done something else on par, or subpar, or way subpar, I was starting to wonder if I should just turn in my wings but now I know I am qualified!

So the fall AE is supposed to be a big one, if so, it seems to me as if we'll have that AE prior to flow ups and hiring off the street?

Gentlemen.

I went through Atlanta on my last trip and I want to thank the South Guys for:

1.) Being so hospitable

2.) Being so friendly

3.) Being so helpful

4.) Being so informative.

5.) Not laughing at me when I got stuck in the security by-pass turns-style because I had so many bags.


New K

P.S. Is there anywhere we can leave our bags when we are "topside" so we/I don't have to break our/my back when lugging our bags up and down those steep stairs going down to ops? I think my back is still at the bottom of the stairs.

Thanks crazy.

Next time I go through, I'll ask about the elevator.

New:

The elevator is to the left and behind the movie-rental counter and diagonally across from Wall Street Deli, A Concourse. If you go down the escalator, you went too far;-)

New, don't feel bad about being stuck in the cheese grater. My initial OE had a 0600 show. I got stuck in the cheese grater at 0530 and had to wait 15 minutes for my badge to reset. Good thing I showed 30 min early!

You have to stack vertically or get some help with your bags.

To clarify even more. Up to 10 years, you can choose to come back or not (so long as there is hiring going on), because of the merger they added 4 more years. However if you get recall in the '4 more years' part, there is no more choice. You accept recall when called, or resign on the spot.

That's the way the letter reads anyway.

Many of our pilots are trying to stay in the Military until they have their 20 years in and the military pension and medical for life. Many would also come back to a Captain seat. I know several in this situation. They are however sweating bullets that Delta will enforce the 5 years max military leave provision in URESSA. Many of our 00 and 01 hires fall into this area. Most should be seeing their 20 years in 11 or 12. Not sure many in that status can make it back this fall and have the 20.

§ 93.221 Transfer of slots.
http://law.justia.com/us/cfr/title14....1.3.11.13.9.7

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this subpart, effective April 1, 1986, slots may be bought, sold or leased for any consideration and any time period and they may be traded in any combination for slots at the same airport or any other high density traffic airport. Transfers, including leases, shall comply with the following conditions:

(1) Requests for confirmation must be submitted in writing to Slot Administration Office, AGC–230, Office of the Chief Counsel, Federal Aviation Administration, 800 Independence Ave., SW., Washington, DC 20591, in a format to be prescribed by the Administrator.....

(2) The slot transferred must come from the transferor's then-current FAA-approved base.

(3) Written evidence of each transferor's consent to the transfer must be provided to the FAA.

(4) The recipient of a transferred slot may not use the slot until written confirmation has been received from the FAA.

(5)(i) Until a slot obtained by a new entrant or limited incumbent carrier in a lottery held under §93.225 after June 1, 1991, has been used by the carrier that obtained it for a continuous 24-month period after the lottery in accordance with §93.227(a), that slot may be transferred only by trade for one or more slots at the same airport or to other new entrant or limited incumbent carriers under §93.221(a)(5)(iii). This transfer restriction shall apply to the same extent to any slot or slots acquired by trading the slot obtained in a lottery. To remove the transfer restriction, documentation of 24 months' continuous use must be submitted to the FAA Office of the Chief Counsel.

(6) The Office of the Secretary of Transportation must determine that the transfer will not be injurious to the essential air service program.


Injurious= harmful, hurtful, or detrimental. I hardly see where the DOT/FAA will be able to justify their ruling. Allowing the CAL/AirTran trade eliminated a LCC at the Newark Airport and gave the dominate carrier even more power. Tell me how that wasn't "Injurious"?

We have met all of the requirements from what I've seen. They are clearly in the wrong.
