Ain't no shame in our game. My first day as a major airline captain, I flew a 75 seat DC-9-10 from DTW to MDW, and I was damn proud.
Someone needs to put the memo out to the higher ups that we want to fly those airplanes. Delta pilots don't discriminate against any lift carrying airplanes, big or small.
I agree we should fly them and want a sunset or a sort of sunset. No gtf's is a great start, but it need to be expanded to anything but the current types of hulls. I am all for improving this any chance we get.
