Well, you should have seen it when it came in from Puerto Rico. We could not hurt it any worse than they did.

Today, while enjoying the hospitality of Goodyear Aerospace the thought kept coming to me ... "why doesn't Delta do something like this?" There are quite a few airports where the weight, size and expense of the 757 they sometimes send out just does not fit.

There's absolutely nothing difficult or unforgiving about that airplane ... they just need pilots who are flying it enough to stay realistically current in the thing.
