Bar apparently underestimates my ability to post a huge picture in his post. Let us wait. :D
The picture of his goat friend may remain for now..... |

You make a couple of good points. If a guy is out on MILLEV, and just doing what he's been called out to do, I'm all for him keeping his place in line, so to speak. The way the rules are written, leaves it so open to abuse kind of makes it untenable.....guy get the interview, hired on, and never intending to fly till he's actually out of the mil. and secured a retirement, then comes back--bam--left seat on whatever he can hold. Maybe I'm missing something...
First, you need a DD-214 (out of the military) to get hired in the first place. Second, you would need the reserves to go from undermanned to wartime quickly thereby offering you the option to go back to active duty after joining the reserves. Third, said when was the last time anyone at DAL could "hold the left seat on anything" after 5 years? So getting out of the active duty with 5 years to go just to get hired and go back to the military is a tenuous proposition to say the least. Most were Furloughed and scrambled for a few years just to try to find a niche that they may be able to return to active duty, far from a planned evolution. LUV |

Well, I hope I'm paying him a $100. It is an anonymous board and I just put the money in the V-File I thought was his. |
Where that cargo door is on that 80, that'd been a nice place to put a 2L door and put the galley in the middle.
How we do 40 minute turns is bey... sigh... I can just sense Bar sees an opening. |
