This is great, UAL was fined $6000 (maybe $12000 in one account) for telling the DOT that it had a plane sit on a tarmac in excess of 3 hours but that the passengers were offered food and water and stairs were connected if someone wanted off.
The DOT said you wasted our time, TMI, you met the requriements of the rule. Tell us only when you didn't.... $6000, make the check payable to Mr. Ray Lahood.

Icrew question: I put in for a white slip trip and didn't get it. Is there a way to find out who got the trip without calling scheduling? I was looking for a spot to put in the rotation number and date, and see who captain was...but I sure can't find it anywhere in Icrew.
Thanks,
Carl

In Icrew, select the Pre-Flight dropdown,
select "Rotation" and input the rotation date, base and rotation # and the trip will be displayed with the crew names.

That sounds like the classic refrain to all fnw employees when they ask a question about how to do something i.e. change w-4 withholding, or pass travel questions, etc......the company standard answer is "That is on Delta-net or I crew or travel net(substitute in name as req'd) and you should know how to do that already!" Yes this forum is the best way to find out, because you have 5000 guys with no indoc. at this place, who are figuring out how to navigate the computer systems one item at a time.

If it was a longer trip, it could have been broken down into smaller trips. If you can't find your specific rotation, look for made up rotation numbers like 0121, etc. and that may show that the trip was broken up to fit reserve availability. If you had a white slip and it was broken up to go to a reserve, call scheduling and ask why you didn't get it.

He bid off that thing the moment he could, just as I did
A rite of passage is a ritual event that marks a person's progress from one status to another. It is a universal phenomenon which can show anthropologists what social hierarchies, values and beliefs are important in specific cultures.
Rites of passage are often ceremonies surrounding events such as other milestones within puberty, coming of age, marriage, flying Douglas jets and death. Initiation ceremonies such as baptism, confirmation, bar or bat Mitzvah and "wing ceremonies" are considered important rites of passage for people of their respective religions.
Like most Rites of Passage, flying a Douglas jet is miserable at the time, but is remembered fondly. After all, your greatest life long humiliation serves as others' momentary amusement. Flying a Douglas jet for 500 hours will provide you with enough experiences and stories to make conversation during the next 30 years flying Boeing equipment.

. Then I had the pleasure of returning to the seat after being spoiled by the airbus lol. The first go on the -9 was the pleasurable experience at least 
But you're right, I do look back fondly on the diesel 9 experience
