If aircraft DON"T get delivered...etc...then upgrade slips to NEVER. So instead of being that much of a pessimist, try going with current information.
As for my part in the DISinformation effort on this thread, I heard Delta is liquidating next week. Hey it's as factual as some of the other stuff here.
Cheers!

Disinformation? Yeah I really out there to discourage guys on coming here. The more we hire the faster we upgrade, so I m on this board to sabotage my upgrade, your soooo smart. Maybe all the koolaid ur drinking is going to ur head. How is 5!!!!! true upgrades in 08 disinformation? so thats like 1.25 sic's to pics a month. And ur right maybe we will get 50 hawker 4000 this year, and maybe the ssbj too, and maybe just maybe RTS will dump the SIC salary and paid as a captain.
How many a/c actually get delivered in the promised time frame? How many FSI slots are available this year fo non apu aircraft? what about 50? Its not like the ultra going away or nothing right? Are we not trading in 2 ultras for encore +'s. Its that a net loss on the non apu side?
3 years, well looks like I will upgrade this year according to ur math, and if I do I will personanlly buy all you guys beers at anyembassey suites during the manager special. Good
