WBBM Radio reports that a passenger on Flight 3163 from Detroit, who may have been travelling from Ghana, had some sort of contagious disease.

Small problem...that's NOT a Delta plane, it's a connection carrier. The beat goes on.

Take the rest of the month off with my compliments.

LOL well I think the school is only half the battle. We'll see if I can handle the six leg days in and out of Atlanta in the summer with 90 degrees, high humidity, poor air conditioning, and a delay for each flight where there are thunderstorms in a 200 mile radius of atlanta! Seriously, do you know if I get that extra day off or if I am still on call on the 88? I wasn't sure if you were just being sarcastic or if you actually know.

I was attempting to write with some wit. You are off. The day you showed up for dc9 school was the last day you could fly the 88. Like the 88 gives a $hit

True. You can't fly the 88 anymore. However, they can give you a Mid Month Conversion (MMC) I think and you could be on the hook to fly the 9 after you complete OE. I'm not sure if they can do that or how it will pan out schedule wise.

You can check with the 9 OE scheduler and ALPA if no one pipes in with a better answer.

I'm going from the 88 to the 9 here in a few months. How was the transition?

My pea brain looks at it like this, simple...conversion is about pay. oe is about qualification. Once your oe's are done, then your schedule as shown on DLnet matters.
