Bummer, but I keep my job. It is what it is...

Nu,
That is why we, on the DAL South list, said that this is going to be good for the fNWA guys and bad for us. This is not crystal ball stuff, this is a history lesson. How many former Pan Am aircraft do we still have? How many former Western aircraft? Answer none. DAL has a history of buying something then taking it apart and closing the bases that came with it.
After SOC, I imagine we are going to be the worlds largest commuter, as in pilots commuting to work, airline. There is no telling where aircraft are going to end up. But we will have displacements and then we will see how many fNWA guys are complaining when they go from commuting to work as an A320B in DTW to commuting to work at ATL as a 75/76B.
