Just sharing because it's quiet in here already. :D

But Delta only hires Captains...
Must be calling some of us "aquired pilots"..:D

My cousin's girlfriend's friend who works in crew resources has been at happy hour since 4pm. With a mess like this AE to solve, they started drinking early.

What's the "minimum hours" requirement?

What is low time? I hear DAL has ordered trainer wheels for the 88.

Confirmed ... Buddy just got a call from Crew Resources saying he got the 88A bid (137XX sen #) but doesn't have the 1000 FAA hours and 500 Delta hours required to be awarded it. Former fighter guy still on probation! This is going to get interesting.
