This was the kicker for me. After floating along fat, dumb, and happy for years, one day I woke up and looked at my wife and two boys and instead of feeling the warm fuzzy I was used to I got the "Holy Poo, What if..." shakes. I'm a really healthy guy (gym twice a week, run 30 miles a week, borderline obnoxious when it comes to food, etc, etc), so I think I can do better than Delta's blanket coverage.
So, anyone in the mulitple kids one wife (or general sole provider) bucket, I'm curious about what kind of coverage you think is adequate and where you get it.
PMs welcome.

I flew a 50 seat rj for 3 1/2 years. I lost respect for Carl when he started insulting me and telling me that I am the problem with the industry. He can do no wrong because he avoided flying for American when they had a "B" scale. Never mind that Northwest eventually had a "B" scale that Carl and his fellow pilots voted for. It's okay though because Carl only flew on the "A" scale. Now I just ignore his posts. I don't have any respect for ALPA either. I sent a DPA card in over a year ago. They will not get another one until I'm under a new contract. If the contract meets my expectations, they will never get another card. As someone who's been on the 320, DC-9, and MD-88, I will never fly with Carl. He will be retired before I am ever done being displaced between our narrow body fleets.

Much more enjoyable couple pages here... I was getting tired of wading through 90% Dalpa/DPA stuff when checking for AE rumors, what the 88 guys are up to, what life is like for the LAX step-children, which airlines are buying what, etc. etc.
It seems like it's high-time for an FTB post of "When's it gonna be the AE bid?" Friday spoof.

Considering the wording of the crew resources letter... this will most certainly not be a 400 ER pilot displacement. I see there to be a continual paring down of the 767 domestic categories with movement to the ER, not ER displacements.
Oh, and at least 100+ more slots in the ATL 320.
Long live Always crowned double-breasted pilot (hattuswearus deltapilotus)!

the google-fu is strong with me tonight:
and while I'm at it, newK would like to re-hash how to properly brush your teeth prior to reporting in the morning. Please notice his freshly shaven face:

DELTA replace Luzair for 21 Japan – Honolulu
DELTA replace Luzair for 21 Japan – Honolulu Charter Services Nov 2011 – Jan 2012
by JL
Update at 0705GMT 08NOV11
Reported by Japanese Travel Press, DELTA will operate 21 charter services between Hawaii and Japan, from Nov 2011 to Jan 2012. Previously these charter flights, operating for local tour operators in Japan, were to be operated by Portuguese charter carrier Luzair. Luzair’s sole A340-300 suffered engine trouble, which requires 2 months to fix the issue.
Luzair originally was chosen as a replacement of another Portuguese carrier HiFly, which also had technical issues. DELTA is chosen for its scheduled service reliability, and the Skyteam member is currently awaiting for approval from Japan’s MLIT.
DELTA will offer A330-300 service between Honolulu and following 11 Japanese cities: Sapporo, Hanamaki, Sendai, Fukushima, Shizuoka, Komatsu, Nagoya, Osaka, Hiroshima, Yamaguchiube, Kumamoto.
