Please go back up and click on the Jeffersons youtube video before proceeding:
Tsquare would bust a move.
Bar would move up in seniority, may even go back to the 767...
And who can forget Carl Spackler? Just all the happiness in ATL may make him dance like he did that time with a young Courtney Cox!
Without the music, it ain't the same and they dance the whole song. It's great.

I think the company learned their lesson about 'small bases', back when the Express Pilots figured out how to play the "With Conflict Only" game, and they were making as much, or more, than Mainline 737 Pilots!

You're going to ruin my fun...
BTW, it seems like a lot of flights. Doesn't seem like any smaller a base than MEM... wait. CVG. wait. DC9 ATL!
Besides, it's PBS now, we can't play games anymore. Or we get spanked.
one more.

That guy in the article was all over the place. First he asserts that the Ex-Im bank only gives loans to companies that have no access to credit but then claims Delta pays higher interest because they have a poor credit rating. Do these other carriers have high credit ratings or do they not have access to credit, you have to pick one or the other.
Second, he claims that there is no subsidy in the Ex-Im bank. Then he claims if we end the Ex-Im then carriers will all go to Airbus because they have subsidies. Which is it, are there subsidies or not?
This was probably written by a Boeing PR guy and handed off to Forbes along with a large advertisement buy.

Wow, a scheduled MD88 ATL-MCO turn on Wednesday? No deadheads? Crazy stuff.
I swear there are so many 757s flying out of MCO it's insane we don't have a pilot hub there. I mean you have 32 757s flights to and from ATL, 8 757s to and from MSP, 12 757s to and from DTW and 2 757s each to and from LAX and SLC.
That's 56 flights that either land or leave MCO every day, why can't it be a MCO pilot hub?
It's a maintenance hub and a flight attendant hub, but not pilots? How many 757 pilots have to be put up a night there? Well, this I know, every pilot on an overnight there has to be provided a hotel.

There is NO MONEY IN FLORIDA!!!!
Srsly though I think we're being indirectly penalized to fund the never ending marketing blank check that's been given. Fly anything, anywhere, regardless of trip construction, pilot productivity or basing, that generates one penny more revenue. So every city gets every plane in the fleet and nothing makes sense for a base for any one of them. Then the company squeals about how unproductive we are with all the low credit days and long sits and overnights because of the marketing situation they created along with their choice to have a zillion fleet types in the first place. They then pile on that said lack of productivity is the reason we can't achieve profitable LCC parity, but maybe we can scrounge up some used fleet refreshment jets at the bottom end for 10 million each, but only if we can order and outsource more 20-40 million dollar "RJ's".

FTB is now cleaning the house.
I talked to the wife.
She said, why would you want to be on the internet instead of cleaning the house?
Actually I don't know what she said. I just had the sudden urge to do something, so now I'm cleaning.
