Maybe he heard it had worked for another guy a while back:
At Rio Hato Airfield, three MC-130E airplanes approached the runway, despite numerous ongoing firefights. Landing through the use of radar and night vision goggles, the Talons rolled to a prescribed point on the ground. Once there, these aircraft established a forward aerial refueling and rearming point. While these crews offloaded fuel for two hours, the battle raged around them. One crew had to shut down their number four engine when it incurred damage from flying debris. Disregarding their personal safety, this crew took off with three engines in the dark. According to the crew’s award package, this was “the first recorded three-engine takeoff under such conditions …” |

Which French Model does she think you are, A330 or A320?
Let's see, she either gets to work you hard enough to snap off your tail, or you going headfirst into the '"bush". :eek::D We'll expect a full accident report by this time tomorrow. Oh, and you may want to take some of those NASA forms with you, to write it all down, before you forget the details! Without pictures, it makes no sense. :D |

If I had to bet, I'd say we face 3:2 odds of losing the slot. Especially where DL is based versus a beloved underdog airline from a state with far deeper current political ties. This could actually be the catalyst to jump start the inevitable merger, which is fine with me. If we're going to do it, sooner is better because every single new hire class they run buffs their list more than several years of non stop DL hiring. I predict we lose the slot, acquire Hawaiian, are faced with threats of losing it again as part of DOJ mandated divesture but end up keeping it after giving something else up. But that's just me guessing. |

Maybe. It could also be a planted rumor to help DAL's effort because when the dust settles, its going to be a DL slot anyway?
