Thanks fellas. I was called into work yesterday (MEM based), had a few minutes, and approached the MEM A/A ticket counter and put this question to the gentleman tending the desk. He volunteered to list me on the J/S, asked for my ID, and he promptly listed me. Whole heartedly agree about the MEM A/A staff. Great group. I would stay on my own line (Delta), but we don't have a departure till about 9:30am. Eagle's is at 6:50am. Gets me in big D much earlier. I'll be driving back to MEM later in the day. I actually used to work for A/A (furloughed in 1994--or I'd probably still be there. Thoroughly enjoyed my 15 months there). Thanks for the input on this. I would not have even posted it, but didn't know I'd be called into work where I was able to get an answer for myself. The J/S is a very valuable asset we have as airline pilots--don't ever take it for granted (I don't), as it is, thankfully, Captain's prerogative. Always glad to extend it to a fellow pilot, always thankful for it. BTW, this flight (6:50am) is an RJ. I think A/A does a mix of RJs and '88s for the MEM-DFW route.
Cheers,
Chuck
