And then where did you end up when they shut Express down?
I was a MD88 Capt. 6 years after I was hired at DL, at age 32...for 9 months. Then they sold the DC9's and those guys jumped onto the MD88, spitting all us 6yr. Capts. out the bottom, back to the right seat for many years.
5 years later, as I was just getting senior enough to hold the 737-200 mainline left seat, they were pulled off the mainline and put into...
EXPRESS!
