Since you're talking perspective, the 25 787-900s ordered are in addition to this order for 110 jets placed last year for what SD called a fleet renewal effort (replace 16 AF A340 and 10 KLM MD11). That would make the 25 789s growth aircraft...

why this matters to Delta pilots is because we have a 50/50 JV with AFKLM/AZ.
I'm pretty sure someone here will tell us "it's all good because..."

Cheers

Something similar to American Pie and the exchange student in the bedroom scene?

He prefers Frontierpublynxcatauquttlemidwestamerica. And the tradeoff for the 316 hull scope relief is a 6.66% raise for Delta pilots.

Tebow's girlfriend was also part of the deal, but she's going to RAH for 3 minutes. Or Frontier for ten minutes if Denver goes to the Bowl.

Yup, my sentiment exactly. I still love hearing how we were able to protect ourselves from losing even more flying to our codeshare partners when we placed specific restrictions in our contract. I can't see how our scope restrictions could have been anymore relaxed.

The one statement that troubled me was referring to the airline as Air France-KLM Group, I kringe whenever I hear that.

Default Not underboob

Wait, did I just say "underboob"? Oops, I said it again.

Anyway, I don't think this is anything worse than what some athletic, good looking lady next to you in the middle seat might have on the cover of her issue of Allure, Shape, or Cosmo. But if those magazine covers offend you and you feel a need to slam shut your laptop because these pictures are too much for you to handle then this site may be of some help.

Why were we losing flying in the first place?

Satch: Did you hear the LSU team bus is stuck in MSY? Someone painted a 50yd line in front it.

Ok fellas, I've been home since December 27th... and it's not going well. For the love of God, man! Could somebody help me out? The wife asked if she could start a blog and I said "sure Honey", thinking it would get her off my a$$. Turns out it is an online Manifesto about what an idiot she thinks I am. In 48 hours, she's had 200+ views, from 6 countries. So, my Delta Bros, log on. Subscribe. Share it with your wives. Maybe, just maybe, it will save one of you from the wrath I face on a daily basis. Oh, and by the way Ferd, I'm outta' beer. angrypilotwife
