Mayber now the United folks can get a thread that is a couple hundred pages long bloviating on seat movement, growth, retirements and bidding on 50 new jets.

Cheers

Now that's funny. You don't like the long DAL tread....there's some news that some one posts about UAL that has nothing to do with DAL....and what do you do?........You bring up DAL!

I guess misery truly does love company.

I'd love for ya'll to get a mega-thread going about UAL... it is an enigma as far as most of the rest of us know, so rumors from over there would be quite interesting. So... CRANK IT UP!

But everybody likes all the hot air that comes from the long delta thread, most other airlines don't have all that hot air coming from them. All the talk and then they will sit and wait for everyone else to get a contract for them.

Hot Air and Poop.

Those topics reminded me of joe kolshak. How's he working out for you UAL? Watch out for the switcheroo come contract time. He/they will try to trade the -350s for something. One-trick ponies all.

Good Luck!
