Hey I have a question for you all... I finished training on the DC9 and they aren't converting me until next month. I have one day after all training and OE that is reserve and I currently am showing on the reserve list for the MD88 for that day. This is probably a really dumb question but they can't have me fly the 88 after I finish DC9 training can they? Do I just automatically get that extra day off?
Congratulations on completing DC9 school. I am awed by anyone that can fly that plane. You are a credit to Delta pilots everywhere.
Take the rest of the month off with my compliments.

If we get a 2bln day one bump on the current contract; which I do not see happening on day one, then of course the number going to be lower. I have a bet on where the agreement will hit, but will not post that sort of stuff, and given that valuation, I see the profit going where I projects.
(Of course that is if we do not run over any more black swans!

I am not talking about AMR or Parker eating all of them.
Reality is that Parker will have one heck of a time operating DFW and PHX in their current structure. Parker may be smart enough to concede PHX, but if he is not, then part of DFW will probably be sold off. Competing with LUV on those two fronts alone would be difficult, especially with the Wright Amendment going totally away in a few years.
In other news apparently the word of at UCAL is a deal on their JPWA in the June time frame. It is the same time I figure we have to come to a deal for the company to go after assets of AMR's. Looks like UCAL may want MIA too.

I'd answer because this appears to be sincere, but the last time I took someone seriously for what seemed sincere I was accused of being a 1%. A good way to get your rocks off if that's what you need to feel good about yourself (not you FATboy, unless that is you were trying set someone up with your post).

I was watching from my cell, and I didn't know if it was a computer generated scene for a video game or movie. Sorry, never heard of Catch 22.Ok, I'm going to bed now (embarrassed).
