"Ok.... sure."
They were absolutely convinced the TA went down on social media misinformation and if they had more time it would have passed. Couldn't grasp when I told him were it to go out to a vote again today it would probably be voted down by an even wider margin.
You can not argue logically with a sycophant like that - it is pretty sad. I just don't know why they don't admit that they made a mistake.
I would respect a rep a lot more if he would say "We did not think the company would go ahead with the 190s - we believed them - we were wrong."
This BS that they cancelled the order and this was a different order is somewhere between preposterous and pathetic. Does anyone at Delta fly or get paid by "aircraft orders?" Who GAS if they cancel order A and then go out and buy the same aircraft with order B?
Wow they sure showed us! I am really torn up that the 190s are coming via order B as I had my heart set on order A.
Do they actually think there is one line pilot out of the 13,000+ DAL Pilots that would actually buy that crap?
