Tweet IPs also had to take their instrument checks from the right seat looking cross cockpit. To this day, I'll watch the Capts instruments when I'm the PM, old habits die hard

1150 hours? Pu$$y!! 2300 something in 3 tours, mostly spinning

Ferd <---spin demo IP at Willie, Randolph and Sheppard. Giving my identity away, oops

I have the Dru Blair poster called "Low Level Lightning"...a good depiction of West Texas where I live.



This is fake too...we don't fly 50 ft above the ground, but the system will do 200 ft @ 0.90 Mach. Note the jackrabbit running away in the bottom left corner.

Are we?
This morning the oil price & D0 stat were both off too, probably just coincidence. Lots of Airline stocks are trading near their 52-week lows now. Once DAL puts out 2Q profit #'s we'll see some happy investors.

Doesn't help that we're the "Second Most Hated Company" in America, even though we are the "World's Most Admired Airline".

Yeah I noticed that along with it disappearing from DeltaNet. Things that make you go hmmm?
On another note, just flew with my first FNWA brother...you guys aren't so bad
He was over 60 with no intention of leaving until 65
We did have two different whale drivers jump seating, one took the early leave. The other mentioned that out if the 190ish early out letters 34 (or did he say 44?) were 744 guys. That will create some movement!
Cheers

I never want STOCK in exchange for concessions. Airline Stock is worthless unless you are a daytrader, HUMBUG!

Ten makes a great point. Take things that cannot be taken back easily, like rates and work rules.

In the same boat as you Ferd. Just shaking my head as it continues its slide.
