ACL & Columbia, don't get me wrong, I voted No. I guess my point is that other pilots at other companies have very unique struggles.

On a different weird note, I was eating breakfast at my cheap hotel in a bad part of town while on reserve and I hear what sounds like a gunshot. After 24 years in the Air Force shooting thousands of rounds of ammo, I know what a gunshot sounds like. I turn around and see a woman covered in an exploded hard-boiled egg. The eggs are served cold, she microwaved it, sat down and BOOM! Now that is a science experiment!

Back to contract stuff, I talked with an AirTran FO yesterday who said that their pay rates will be SWA rates sometime in 2014.
