I believe I saw one of the people involved with the process say that they shouldn't need to resubmit the rec. This is a new process, so I guess that would mean they plan on going through and scoring everyone who has a rec from a current pilot on file. As far as a non-pilot Delta employee goes, I imagine it would not trigger a review, but that is just a guess. If you haven't already, I would follow the recruiting page on Facebook and send them a DM to get a more solid answer. Especially about whether or not the rec needs to be resubmitted.

When I call for flaps, I want them. Spin my bugs, like I tell you. I'm hand flying. Don't delay. Thank you.

Majority of of folks can't keep up when I'm hand flying. So we are somewhat hamstrung to use the automation as they are the lowest common denominator.

What say you?

Maybe they can't keep up because you're just horrible at hand flying, ever think of that??

My bet is: he purposefully waits until tower calls your turn or next freq and then starts rapid fire callouts over the top of them like a newhire does who is just holding onto the tail.

Drum's posts are so rediculous I'm convinced it's trolling. I think it's time to laugh then move on without a response

Well, he might sound a little unhinged. He is on one side of the spectrum. And then there is you. You sound grounded until of course you advocate for a “mandatory vacation for all pilots, regardless of EUA and natural immunities.....and if they fail to comply, they should be fired”. That is as close to what you said as I can state..........so who is unhinged?

If this guys internet personality is anywhere even remotely close to his real life self, then he has got to be a complete, total, utter pain in the a** to fly with. I mean who says stuff like that?

Or maybe he's the coolest most grounded humble professional (you know, the folks we all actually enjoy flying with) and is just pulling a fast one on all of us? If so, bravo sir.

You act like I run the company. I simply agree with Delta's policies so far, and support the right of a private enterprise to make their own policy. I also fully support your right to do as you please with the vaccine.

Hypothetically, if you worked for me and chose not to vaccinate you would be terminated. Thankfully you don't work for me so you don't have an axe to grind. Forced Vaccination is a whole different thread subject anyway.

He’s always been like this. It’s far too konsistent to be an actual troll job. Recently it seems that he realized he has a reputation and is leaning in a bit.

Yeah, its a truth that not everyone takes this internet stuff so seriously. I can see myself easily leaning into a comedy parody of myself if I was in the right mood.
