With the international expansion in Asia and Europe, would it not seem logical to eliminate some domestic pilot bases and put them overseas. One in Japan would work nicely along with one in Amsterdam. Pilots would be readily available if some U.S. based pilots get sick and gives Delta more flexibility to fly to excellent U.S markets (ie. DFW which does not have much Europe or Asia) for a nice profit. And Anderson wants to capture more of the Asia flying, a pilot base would work great. It just seems a waste to base pilots here and build long trips away from home. Then we would be a global airline!

True on the training front but they better get er' figured out. They are F'd when retirements kick in if the small hiring we did this summer is too much.
I see a lot of benching in our future. Wait, I see almost three months of bencing in my future starting Dec 1. Hooray!

Come on Buzz, don't like Favre. It's open season on him this year. Every time I think he is out for the season, some how he comes back. The guy has taken a beating this year, both on and off the field. I do like his taste in the ladies though.....

Plus, if you're gonna sext pictures of your package, you might want to take off the red crocs.
Too much ego, too many interceptions, so little time. We've got A-Rod now, I'm good.

Just heard from floor 4 that we are in serious looking mode at AK*.
I used to want this, now I'm not so sure. Most of those guys will be put in front of me. As it stands now, I could be SEA 76 in 2 years. We add AK and I can kiss that goodbye.
*I think this may be why we are securing more cash. Just reading the leaves.
