The universe bends to my will, so it'll be SLC. Place your bets!

But place them quietly. Ironically, betting is illegal here.

We had a real nice one in MSP but got rid of it. Why would we spend billions on something we had 7 years ago. Oh yeah it’s Delta.

Please tell us more about Natco. Seems that place was full of unicorns. Have yet to hear a NW guy say a bad word about it.

I’ve never heard of a single mugging, stabbing or armed robbery near the old NATCO facility. You did have to be on the lookout for deer, wild turkey and geese however.

They would probably see an uptick in pilots bidding on to new equipment if that is really the case. For so many (myself included) the biggest deterrent to changing planes is a month on VA Ave. A month in SLC or somewhere similar would be a whole different story.

I’m sure it’s just a ridiculous rumor.

Sailing has always be spot on. The amount of training required by massive retirements has been done in the past and it’s a walk in the park.

Is this rumor nonsense Sailing?
