Thanks for the obvious, Mr. Obvious. :)
I'm deeper on reserve than I ever have been at the company.. blargh. And further, even a proportional reduction in block hours would be a good thing as long as it happens with pilots leaving ahead of you and doesn't cause furloughs. You could, hypothetically, go from #9000 of 10000 to #500 of 1500. Still 1000 pilots behind you, but you went from a junior FO to mid-level captain. |

In all seriousness, maintaining block hours while reducing pilots ahead of you be good for you? Because each pilot ahead of you would be replaced by one behind you.

You have the ones DAL released in the press.
That said, with the AD's and Boeing and LUV asking for more time since they don't have the kits, I would not be surprised in the least to see the delivery schedule get delayed and modified a few times. http://thumbpress.com/wp-content/upl...-tape-baby.jpg After a little practice; structural, interference and chemical resistance were assured through testing. The repair methodology was ready for flight test. http://www.instablogsimages.com/imag...s7p8H_3868.jpg http://www.instablogsimages.com/imag...NLq2q_3868.jpg There, fixed it! |

We're reducing block hours and not replacing pilots lost currently.

So you're moving up. Eventually you'll be #1 with pilots still behind you.

There was a BizWeek article saying SW was asking for 90 day extensions on the AD. Of course I bet they'll she'd crocodile tears if they have to delay deliveries to Delta. Of course that would delay hiring and upgrades as well. Good thing we can manipulate that time/value/money TA spreadsheet floating around :rolleyes:

Is that based on volume or weight?
Tr 777-300 7100 cu.ft. 20 LD3 747-8i 6,300 cu.ft. 18 LD3 A380 5,800 cu.ft. 16 LD1 The 777-300 already wins in capacity but excels after subtracting cargo capacity for passenger bags. After loading all pax bags the 777-300 has 5,200 cu.ft. remaining for gravy vs 3,000 cu.ft. for the A380 and 3,800 cu.ft. for the 747-8i. Cheers George |
