Was in the Denver crew room the other day. Several pilots were welcoming back a CAL FO. I thought to myself, if it wasn't for us and our little regional airline, this guy would not be setting foot inside this Denver crew room. I guarantee you he would not be out flying a jumbo, he would be out looking for a JOB! Oh wait you downsized for this merger to happen, I know started back in 2000.

I thought people stopped using the word jumbo back in the 1970s? In another five years those airplanes will be what, 50-60, 70 years old??

BTW, your 777 lines in SFO are just awful! The days off are not there. I like my 737 don't want to fly a JUMBO! Get plenty of time off and don't have to fly so far away.

I say fence your jumbo forever, don't care. We can then fence our 737 captain upgrades and I will take my jumbo pay check. That way you can upgrade in your jumbo, but you better hurry your jumbo will soon be 50 years old.
