Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?
Yikes! You guys are getting worse.
Super, if you are still on, UNDERBOOB PLEASE!
(Speaking of underboob: When are the double breasted jackets required? October or November?)

I would like the following change in the next contract:
Currently we have a max of 6 short calls, though that does go to 7 next winter I believe.
Right now I see that when we have training in our month, we are limited from 6 to 5 short calls because of the 3 less days of availability on ones schedule that now thankfully does not take away from our off days.
I propose that when a person sitting reserve flies, that that persons SC amount also goes down. So if you get a 3 day trip, when you finish you now are only on the hook for 5 SCs instead of 6. I know the company probably won't go for this, but It would be nice. In July I flew a bunch and was done before the month was out, but still was on the hook for all my SCs, so they couldn't really fly me, but they could still make me sit SC.
Luckily I'm done for the month on SCs, 5 in a row all truncated so I could sit perpetually for 6 days.

November thru Feb, unless you are going within 8 degrees of the equator, or further south, then not at all. I went many years without wearing it at all, by bidding GRU, JNB and SYD layovers every winter. It's summer down there.
