I obviously do. Just give me an official count of your departures from SEA as of today and ask your mods to let me live for a least five years and the bet with gloopy is on! If your mods kill me off, then no cigar. That's not too hard to ask, now is it? Unless you want to discriminize against me because I'm sitting in a wheelchair and I have a speech predicament.

Delta 30 Gates In SEA
Does this bet involve mainline aircraft only? Because if not then Skywest wins. On the plus side since we have such little scope we do get to say our Skywest RJ is bigger than Deltas Skywest RJ. So I got that going for me...Which is nice.

Oh yes. The assumption is that it's actual delta metal we're speaking of an not Alaska or some other company providing the lift. As for Alaska, it's Alaska metal we're speaking of and not someone feeding us. The bet is for delta/Alaska metal only. I'm still on gloopy, are you?

For two more weeks I get to pose as just another sidewalk Alabama fan. Feel free to refer to me as a Gump, Bammer or Updyke. I'll respond to all three.
Oh and Muschamp.
And that is an awesome quote. I bet the one from Alpa National sounds identical, no? How about Dalpa? How about Alaskan Airlines Alpa?
Why you laughing?

Asked about the MRJ90 and E175-E2 exceeding the MTOW limits, Gregg Overman, a spokesman for the Allied Pilots Association, which represents American's pilots, said American can operate them as mainline aircraft flown by mainline pilots.
“Our take on that is that it would make a fabulous American Airlines airplane,” he says. “Any aircraft that exceeds 76 seats or that MTOW, if they're generating revenue for the company, they belong on the property.”

I was at a meeting with Anderson last year. He is funny and confident and arrogant. Soft spoken and casual.
When he spoke about The SEA hub he turned dark. He said we are planting a flag in SEA. It is our hub. We will never leave.
Then back to some funny stuff about Parker.

Or, was his arrogance stoked at how could a little company like AS not be eternally grateful for the opportunity to submit itself to the Bubba Borg?

And, was it just a "business decision" to cancel the contracts AS had with DAL servicing at very short notice last year?

As far as the ACS contracts, Delta made all outsourced stations rebid their contracts. The station I commute from, DGS lost the contract to Piedmont. Just last month, Piedmont got fired for incompetence, and DGS was brought back in. Cheaper isn't always better.

You're on gloopy. Here are my only rules:
(1) Five years from today delta must be at least at their current level of ops in SEA, with no company announcement of a scale back that would take them back below the levels of operations as of December 12, 2014, and
(2) James R. Hatcher must still be alive and well on this forum. Unfortunately at the rate the mods are killing my user names off, I doubt I will be active under this name in five years. If i am, then if the rules of (1) occur and delta is at or above today's operational level, you win. If not, I win and the losing party gives $100 to the winners favorite charity. Deal?

How about this: first airline ceo, delta or Alaskan, to admit that they're revenue or profits were off due to Deltas expansion into SEA will have their respective team player permanently banned from the site. Self ban. So james hatchet is gone is Alaskan management says it, gloopy if The Delta Air Lines management says it.
Could be said as early as the 2014 Quarterly earnings call or later.
So how about that?
