Needles Found In Turkey Sandwiches On Four Delta Flights
This is the needle story. I know it was touched on and scoffed about a few pages back, but I was surprised at how little response there was from you guys. As one of the masses longing for his chance at a job with Delta, I was pretty concerned by this news. Am I making too much out of this? How will this affect business for Delta? Will it be forgotten by the public or will the public not be affected at all? I would love to hear some predictions. I know Delta is a huge company and will overcome this negative publicity, but when competition is so fierce between the airlines, shouldn't I be concerned?
I'm sorry I couldn't figure out how to embed it in my post. Yes: FNG...

Someone contracted by Delta in a foreign country sabotaged food with sewing needles. I'm sure the authorities in said country are all over this. This story is more an insult to that country's hiring practices and security procedures than to anything at Delta.

Yes.
How will this affect business for Delta?
It won't.
Will it be forgotten by the public or will the public not be affected at all?
Correct.
I would love to hear some predictions.
The Patriots are going to win the Super Bowl, or Tom Brady is going to divorce Giselle...
Oh, and Tebow will sit on the bench all season for the Jets.
I know Delta is a huge company and will overcome this negative publicity, but when competition is so fierce between the airlines, shouldn't I be concerned?
Yes, be afraid, be very afraid.

Just go to the Drudge Report. One of the headlines says "United Plane Plunges 20,000 Feet Over The Atlantic". The aircraft had an engine problem and they did a track divert back to Gander.

I think a lot of us would question that

Does anyone think we will see vacancies on this next AE? The last couple have been backwards. I fear that the aircraft (737, MD90), if only replacement aircraft, will result in more displacements. Or rather, a complete shake up of everyone junior to a 777 or 747 CA.

In their last blurb they mentioned being short of 777 pilots in DTW, but then said it might be cheaper to DH the ATL 777 guys up to DTW. So will they displace ATL 777 pilots, and add to DTW?
AND...they still have to wait to see how many guys actually bite on the early out program, then decied who can go, and decide how many of those guys they are going to replace.
So...to answer your question;
A definite Maybe.
