With Flt ops announcing no AE until the end of the year it would be hard to hire or recall those on bypass until another AE was posted unless all pilots were going to the dc9 :eek: It does make more sense to hire than to displace. I assume you would see an AE prior to hiring. As for the AE relative to hiring, that is how it usually seems to be, however since the hiring/training pipeline takes a while to ramp up, if they "know" they will need pilots, I could see them gearing things up before an official AE. I don't think it will happen, but it wouldn't be mind blowing if it did. My best friend Kevin Bacon knows this guy that lives next door to this lady that goes to church with a CPZ pilot and he says that she says that he says that someone high up at CPZ said that CPZ and DL have worked out the next round of flows a little better and the 90 day buffer, which Hulas says will be enforced rigorously, will be built into the process the next time we hire. Word is CPZ wanted a little more notice anyway and DL absolutely hated doing the split class thing with flow holdbacks and ghost bidders when new hires were going into 3 or 4 different planes. That's something that will likely be the case if and when hiring ever resumes (Objection! Sustained. I withdrawal my statement.) so if the department that runs Flt Ops (Marketing, duh) anticipates anywhere near significant and/or sustained hiring, I could see the process gearing up before the next AE made it official. All that said, I'm still bearish on the liklehood of it all at the present time, but there are some wild cards out there for sure. |

Scuzi, a break in the action.
Guys, please take the time to complete the latest Rotation Construction Survey. I'm not sure if it has any effect at all, but for all us 10.3 hour credit red eye *****s in LA, can it hurt? Grazie. Back to your regularly scheduled underboob, hiring rumors and RJ bashing. Buzz I move we round it up to 10. Now stay after class until you get it right! http://www.addletters.com/pictures/b...he+west+coast. |

Trolls. The MD90 has triple spool 28K motors while the lame 738 has twin spool 26k motors... clearly the MD90 is superior in every way! Sometimes it's not all about specs, sometimes its all about integration. Seem from your love letters to the Maddog you understand that pretty well... BTW, I use the "failed attempt" every day and happy to not have cable. I've never did play games on it either... Cheers George |

http://nation.foxnews.com/sites/nati...closer_AP3.gif Wasn't "DP" last night though. I don't care who it is, it's common knowledge (look how well Boomer does from a much more shall we say "controversial" position) that it's poor form to discuss internal topics as an outsider. You and I don't necessarily agree on "internal topics" but you and I are both members in good standing who currently are part of the organization... We actually understand what the reality is and have the ability to vote, volunteer, and submit resolutions to affect real change. When juniorbus flows and finishes probation, by all means he has every right to critize, because he will be part of the organization... Until then he needs to understand his place (this is much more than "one post" from a few days ago :rolleyes:). It's less than a week until college football season, you have any new cheerleader pics? |
Didn't see this posted yet, but apologies if it's a repeat.
A Delta Airlines Boeing 767-300, registration N179DN performing flight DL-28 (dep Aug 23rd) from Atlanta,GA (USA) to Paris Charles de Gaulle (France) with 209 passengers, suffered a hard landing at Paris Charles de Gaulle at 05:27L (03:27Z), the aircraft vacated the runway and taxied to the gate. No injuries occurred, the aircraft however sustained substantial damage. The return flight DL-29 was cancelled. The airline said the aircraft landed safely but sustained damage. All occupantes remained uninjured, the passengers disembarked at the jetway. The aircraft is currently undergoing examinations. French Authorities have opened an investigation |

This litigation is simply a sign that Apple is out of ideas, and barely comes in fourth in a foot race with Taiwanese and Korean fabricators (assuming the Taiwan competitor was pregnant when the race started). If Xerox had ever enforced their patents there would not be an Apple ... .
Besides there is the usual cycle of buy on the hype, sell on release date disappointment (no matter how good the product is) coming to us. As is usually the case with predatory litigation, the only real winners are the attorneys and the only real losers are the consumers. This will be overturned on appeal. In the mean time Android will all but be put on hold. Quite a development since iOS and Android are both simply customized Linux (open source) shells. Imagine in Orville and Wilbur Wright had been able to get Curtis in front of a California jury. |
