FWIW a 330 LCA on jumpseat yesterday said roughly 70 widebody A’s on the next AE and that the LATAM 350s would likely be converted to 330neos (probably not a surprise to anybody).

What happened to the Top Men initial estimate of 120?

I have been an LCP off and on for probably half if not more of my career here at Delta. I have no idea where these guys get this kind of 'information'. It is not widely distributed in the LCP community, yet there always seems to be 1 or 2 guys that have this 'inside info'.


Cracks me up.


When it's painted, on the ramp and there are bids on it, I will believe it. That goes for ANY of the LATAM A350s, 330 NEOs... etc etc etc....

generally, LCA rumors tend to be wrong.

I’m sure everything is negotiable to a point.

We had a guy on our jumpseat the other day that said we’re getting rid of the hats, can start growing beards, and are all getting company Miatas come 14 Feb. Not even sure if he was with Delta...we never checked his credentials.
