I didn't really have enough knowledge to make a proposal on scope I just know it needs to be better. Ideally, (except in very few rare JV/code share exceptions) if it says DELTA on the side of the airplane a Delta pilot should be flying - if we get 1/3 - 1/2 of the way on this contract with tight language that should do it.
Holding company scope to include JV's and DL pilot approval for ALL code shares and simple, forceful language or we're going to get Republic'd again.

Other than that, there's no way I can one up teaching in a Mooney, haha.
I did fly charters into ATL on a Turbo Saratoga quite a bit while I was in college, and subsequently taught other new pilots on the charter op on it. It was funny having to turn on the air conditioning to use as a speed brake to help slow down to make the landing gear speed of 132 knots.
My favorite story flying into and out of ATL on those charters was the tower controller calling me "heavy" on one occasion. I was behind a 767- with another 767 behind me- and he cleared me into position saying "Saratoga 32TE heavy, position and hold, caution wake turbulence preceding heavy 767. He cleared me for takeoff, and then cautioned the 767 behind me on "Preceding heavy piper Saratoga."

T-34s? Mooney's? Beech's? For your commercial? Or even private?
Now my Piper Arrow time seems, well, like bragging about my 1989 Ford Ranger with no A/C.
We should have a apcf l&g toy box.

Well gloopy sink flamer and george all say that it would be a loss to allow any more jets in the 51-76 seat range even if other areas of scope were to be improved significantly.
I believe limiting and eventually eliminating all off-list DCI pilots... Let the company operate the airline on multiple certificates, as long as there are Delta Pilots in the cockpits!!!
I wonder if the silent masses feel the same.... We can only hope!
