Lots of other variables as well.

Not sure how that guy still has access to proprietary data. That site could be shuttered at any moment without notice.

Not sure what the warning is. That you may be out the cost of 1/2 a cup of Starbuck's in a month if it gets shuttered? Seems like it provides good info for non Delta pilots who want to do research on career progression, basing, staff numbers per a/c per base etc. and $2 (or what ever it is) a month seems reasonable.

Good for you, I hope that continues. He retired years ago now and I think a warning is appropriate.
Having said that, if he's coloring outside the lines, then the company has every right to close that hole. |

Not here to carry Curly's water, but I believe he operates his site with the knowledge of, and tacit blessing from, management. Say what you want about him, but he was one of us for over 30 years, and you want to treat him like... what? It's not like being retired military and still getting current intel update briefs on an old security clearance.

Anyone hired today in any of the 3 legacies, should have a good career. |
Curly's site is also available for free for a coula months for prospective hires. A wealth of info for anyone curious about delta bases, equipment, staffing numbers, retirements and A/E's. A prospective candidate doesn't have access to dig the info out like a new hire. All things I wanted to get on Delta, AA, and UAL when my kids were getting hired.
