[QUOTE=Bucking Bar;1084308]It is a good one. Capt. SD talks about the potential for more 737's and a revisit of the often talked about, never ordered, 100 to 120 seat jet in April to early summer 2012. There's also a mention of a need to gather a plan for a wide body beyond that and 747's flying in Delta colors at least until 2020.


Bar,

I agree that the PODCAST was pretty informative overall, but I am not optimistic on the small narrow-body order. SD sounded very sure and confident of everything he was saying until he got to the subject of the ever elusive small NB order. As soon as he starts talking about this he was very careful about his words, and did not sound confident in what he was saying at all - almost as if he didn't even believe what he was saying (my impression only - listen for yourself and draw your own conclusions).

Lets face it - If DAL wanted a small NB we would order one. As it has been pointed out numerous times by people far wiser than I - they (management) have been saying this since the late 80's. I really hope that I am wrong about this and we actually do place an order.

What will the world see first:

The Loch Ness Monster - Bigfoot - A Small NB order at Delta. All even money in my opinion.
