Wow, it's morons like this guy that vote YES on everything.

I jumpseat on JB all the time. So far, I've had two captains ask my opinion on whether they should take their recall to DAL or stay where they are.

They're probably senior to me, so I tell them to stay where they are.

191 early outs? That's all???

What did we give up for that?

...oh, and no one who applied was turned down.

Far from over. Read the 111 page ruling.

And yet this forum gives out wrong answers constantly in regard to the contract.

USAIR east has a large number of new hires now. They care and want to switch to Delta.

We gave nothing up for the ER program according to the negotiators. I was against the program because normally they provide very short term gains so I asked that specific question. The company extended the same program to the pilots that the other employees got just like a few years ago with the earlier version. It turns out I was wrong on the program and a significant number of younger pilots took the ER and it will be more beneficial then I thought.

I have had two different Frontier pilots tell me that they think Delta is going to buy them. Is anyone else hearing this? There's also the thing about renaming the arena in MKE after Delta.

I found Dal buying the naming rights to the Midwest center peculiar. Why though? I guess we may have a bigger focus in MKE now that it's the Delta Air Lines Center.

Their Mikles now directly transfer to skymiles as well. Makes me wonder if a we buy em or SKW does and we start a domestic cs with them and reduce thenalk one. That would hurt ALK's market cap to the point they may be a buyout target. Just thinking aloud.

MKE has been an on again/off again love affair since the North Central days.

Nothing to see here, move along.
