Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?
While I'm at it, I was on SC at 0430- this trip ends at 2130 tonight. That's way over 16 hours, but the last leg is a dhd... how is this legal? Scheduling said it is since the last leg is a dhd, but that doesn't sound quite right...

It is. 15 hrs sked including a operated flight via PWA and no FAR limit
Whitlow does not apply to DH unless prior to a flight. As for post flight with no FAR defined flying you can go non-stop. Was on duty one time for 36 hrs at the end of a DH. There is no real FAR limit to that, only PWA.

They're pushing the boundaries, boys! Time to hire.
These boundaries will be pushed for the remainder of your career with the work rules in place combined with the retirements coming.

Didn't know that. Maybe 80 should have called in too fatigued to be shoved between two fat paying pax!
NYC was ugly yesterday. We've got crews scattered in hotels you've never heard of. Golden Touch was an hour late picking us up after we were an hour late....and my first room at the downtown hotel had two old Italians in it. I got another one.

Phone rings...
Me: "Hello?" (I'm a little tired - been sleeping late in the day after an early morning turn)
Scheduling: "Hi, Elvis, this is Pat in scheduling."
Me: "Howdy."
Scheduling: "Elvis, I see you acknowledged your 6th short call tomorrow morning at 5:30 AM, but it's coming up as illegal."
Me: "Illegal?" (as I'm yawning inadvertently)
Scheduling: "Yes, so we're just gonna switch that to 10 AM, alright?"
Me: "OK"
Scheduling: "I'll show you acknowledged!"
