BM,

I think you're right. I really don't know what the point is of having a Comair. And what would really happen if Delta anounced that they were going to park every single 50 seater? NOTHING.

listening in on the conference right now. In summary:

recalls and additional furloughs we just have to see the schedule for Delta in the fall, which will becoming out in the next few weeks.

Delta is cutting 10% (mostly international he stated)

Bendo did say he does'nt expect recall in the near future (but things always change)

2500 block hr decrease estimated for the fall.

.......Hang in there a bit longer and keep your fingers crossed the F-bombed isn't dropped for the 4th time.

I believe he specifically said there won't be any recalls

Great question was asked about how you were soooooooo much a part of Delta and that was why we were so important during the BK, but now you just have to face it, because you are Comair and not Delta employees and that is why you don't deserve as good of flight benefits.

Comair officers have the same flight benefits as Delta employees. That should say something in itself. Not every at Comair is created equal and never will be.

Bendo can only tell you what he knows. Probably not much, but he really doesn't need to. There will be almost nothing left of the G.O by the end of the year. He just told everyone that they plan on getting a cheaper product out of the labor groups for doing more work. Good Luck with that..............

I thought the question about how many block hours/ how much attrition it would take to get recalls was a good one, and I wish he wouldn't have gotten side-tracked and forgotten to answer it!

Chow,

Are you ever going back to work? Doesn't your other half get tired of you being around all the time? Does she even exist? I'm beginning to think it's just you, the dogs, the plane and the boat.

When I see your life typed out in black and white it makes me even more jealous. Where did I go wrong? Ha! I'm glad at least one of us is living the good life!

When the right opportunity comes along I will go back to work. Right now I'm having fun and have no intention of returning to a crash pad in the dump called JFK.

As long as the house is clean and dinner is on the table she doesn't mind me so much.

Do you still come down to Orlando? If so I'll meet up with you on your next trip.....Time to hit the mouse, er I mean Disney.
