Really? Could that be true? But "Freezingflyboy" says ATL ATC uses "dixie" because "the problem lies with the ATL pilots and their...specialness." He couldn't be wrong now could he?

Yet somehow, day in and day out since time immemorial, Delta planes have operated safely at airports with taxiways named "delta".:rolleyes: Even at other Delta hubs. If you ask me (and no one did) the problem lies with the ATL pilots and their...specialness. Now, rename it to taxiway whiskey and then I'll be happy!:D

They're still here. One changed his name. |

4 were hired at NWA. All by the same panel of interviewers, who were subsequently removed from pilot hiring.

Any chance there is a list of those names?

I believe most of the EAL scabs went to either UAL or the FAA. While we're on the subject of UAL scabs, I jumpsat on a UAL 727 way back when, and the Capt and F/E couldn't have been nicer to me. The Capt. welcomed me onboard and introduced me to the F/E then said, The F/O is a scab, we don't talk to him. The F/O never said a word the whole leg. It was something. I also remember all the UAL pilots carried "clicker" noise makers. When they saw a scab in the crew room or terminal they would start clicking the noise maker. Sometimes there would be a dozen clickers going.
I hope DAL did not hire any EAL scabs. I have heard that they only hire one rEAL pilot (if true a bit of a downer) but I really hope no scabs were hired at DAL. I had the displeasure of working with an eastern scab at my regional and could not wait to get away from the guy. To what you said, it would be hard to be a captain flying with a scab; knowing the FO would stab me in the back the first chance he got. |

the entirety of aviation post dates the civil war. I’ve yet to hear a good reason ATL gets to be nonstandard (special) in this regard.
Put the civil war stuff where it belongs: in museums and text books |

So what about the crazy names they used for taxiways in ORD pre standardization? I only remember taxi via the car park or something like that.

Confederacy=treason confederacy=slavery Civil war<1865 airplanes>1903<KATL dixie=confederacy=non standard Speaking of rewriting of history have you checked the running total of blatant lies coming out of the WH, it’s astounding. The latest is an absurd conspiracy about a 70 year old man who was brutalized by police. I think the fascism you’re looking for lies elsewhere |
