Let's play which one of these is not like the other! My approximate % in each of the 320 bases:

DTW: 61%
MSP: 63%
NYC: 38%
SLC: 68%



...and ATL??? 94%

Trust me I know, ATL is getting more and more senior.

Eagle is a pro-rate code share, not a fee for departure.

Maybe this was back in my prop days but remember when an engine or prop runaway meant you needed to look at the gauges and not necessarily react to what you're feet were feeling? As in your good engine is the one that feels dead? I still do that when I see a throttle split with auto throttles on. Look at the gauges. Flew with someone once who freaked and just matched the low to the high, to which you have to ask, how did you know that was the bad one?

Of course speaking of auto throttles... "n2 at cruise varied between 77 and 82% n2..." "auto throttled forwarded to MEL." really?

The eagle code was one way to say we can't go after rah as a scope violation because while yes Rah owns DCI carriers under the same umbrella as Frontier, we never did anything about Eagle which is owned by AMR and blah blah blah. Get rid of em all, simplist solution.

Although go to Delta.com/investors and grab an annual report and keyword search American Eagle. It'll explain how their code worked vs a regular DCI.

I don't know if this true or not but it sounds as if theyre done testin the new 88 cockpits at night in the sims and an MD88 will be retrofitted with the new cockpit and operated solely out of CVG. Is that rumor true?

If it is true I'd also like to know if the "spilled coffee" test was as successful as in the original issue
