as early as mid april a north pilot could get rerouted to fly a 767..(not scheduled)

approx. may 1 vacate marine air terminal, expect government approval in a couple weeks

5.7% higher pilot block hours this summer compared to 2009

maybe by mid-march sims will get jepp shipsets....no more carrying jepps to sim. this is practice for whole airline getting them...eventually

more peacetime CRAF flying

a330 sim could be in service by march

500 million planned synergy was the plan for last year, actually reached 800 million with merger so far...good for us

for all you RJ haters....50 more 50 seaters gone this year.

started this year with 5.3 billion, expect 5.7 by end up summer and end year with 5.4

This sucks and I quote, "CVG downsized by QUITE A BIT" .....but to backpedal....it will remain a hub.

Memphis will stay the same as it is....makes a good pressure relief valve for ATL

Cvg doesn't work as good for DTW as MEM does for ATL. DTW has room for growth making cvg less necessary.

ATL is pretty full so growth will come from upgaging equipment. i.e. RJ's replaced by dc-9's to carry more peeps into atl

SEA will see growth....ER

Nothing said on dfw

next bid may or early june. not a clean up bid, just another of many bids to come

staffing looks good

50 dc9 crews will be displaced on the next bid....look for fall for these to take affect when the 30's & 40's go away

training ramps down for summer to have all hands on deck then picks up again in fall

sandwhiches were from jason's deli.....very yummy....lots more was said but thats all my brain can remember and now its time for a cocktail.
