As far as the EAS stuff, there have been rumors running around for months about some of the stations losing their EAS funding because the loads are down. But from what I understand, the contract is still good for at least a year yet. I'll do some checking into it.
I don't know how they do it at Delta, but at my airlines we do VOR checks as the regulation doesn't discriminate between a 757 or a 172!
