I honestly doubt you'll be awarded any more medals though. Unless you go back to serve your country again. I'm sure you're very brave, and a great shot.


Anything else you'd like to add?

Yes. If to make a point, you have to refer to a Medal of Honor recipient as "just doing his job," consider the possibility that you aren't really making the point you want to make.

This LCA thing, did anybody consider that the company might be checking to see just how much chain they have to jerk... It's OK to be paranoid if they are really after you.

None the less, I agree with your point.

Those who have stagnated at the bottom, some of whom are considering looking elsewhere for employment (despite the fact Delta is a wonderful place to be) are desperate for any good news. That is how their priorities get screwed up. I don't condone Fartbox's antagonism on the subject, but with yet another displacement coming up, I sure do understand it.

I have not suggested pilots quit. I predict the next bid will have more Captain vacancies than displacements. Want to bet on that?

You're welcome. My wife thanks you for posting an avatar of your dad.

That would be welcome news. It will be even more welcome if it does not involve an exodus to or from the "colonies" :rolleyes:

pretty sure you can swap golden days, but when you do, they just turn into x days. Its been awhile, but I think I am right.

That is correct. * turns into X and they are swappable.

How about an apples to apples comparison for once? A line check airman posting a bunch of potentially sensitive information on a web board after he was asked not to, is far different than anything a Medal of Honor recipient has, or ever will do. My assumption is that he's still far more humble than you and Gearjerk though. I mean, since you want to rattle your saber like a warrior just so everyone can ultimately see just how awesome you are, we might as well compare you as men.

I'm not even sure where to begin with this one... yikes.
