[QUOTE=Elvis90;1103694]SD sent out a memo a couple of hours ago about this...they're gauging demand. As demand goes up, mainline will replace the RJs. It sounds reasonable.



Maybe, and then again maybe Lucy will actually let Charlie Brown kick the football this year. Then again, Nahhhh, not too likely.

Can't blame the company - they are going to push SCOPE and every other part of the contract as far as they can.

If we, meaning DALPA, DAL Pilots, you, me, him etc do not weigh SCOPE appropriately, then we can expect more of this.

It is a myth kind of like the 100 seat jet that occasionally the company claims to want. They already had those, pay rates too, and then they got rid of them.

The idea of developing markets with RJ's is like a unicorn. It's not reality.
That, of course, begs the question: Why does DALPA keep trying to sell us this crap based on this myth?

I guess the best hope we have is that a no vote is cast on the next contract unless it has scope recovery

Well he screwed his pooch tonight!

He started out looking good, but coughed up the ball, twice, and the Pats took him to school.

I guess that Saturday Night Live Tebow/Jesus skit was right, when Jesus said, "I'm busy next week, got a big birthday coming up..."

Anyone have any recommendations for an Ipad2 case? Bought one as a gift, and am looking to accessorize it as well. Just wondering if anyone has any accolades or horror stories about cases they've used?

Thanks,

GJ

I don't have any experience with cases, as my iPad2 is only a few weeks old, but this cover looks slick: https://www.miniot.com/webshop/?page=miniotcover

Made in Holland and not cheap, but looks sturdy.

The magnetic one apple sells works really well. I was non-rev'ing today and forgot I put my ipad2 in the front of my suitcase. Well I jumped on my suitcase to get it to fit into the stupid overhead bins on the mad dog. I then remembered on descent that my ipad was in there while I was jumping on it. DOH!! It came out of my suitcase all ready to go with no damage
