Airline Pilot Central Forums - Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?

It should be a requirement when we start hiring again for all prospective newhires to read this entire thread.

Kind of a schizophrenic history lesson combined with hazing.

I think that's a great idea!!! Then we should test them on it!

Funny.

If they don't achieve enlightenment, they must reread until they do. It's like trying to achieve the final level of Nirvana.

Can someone help me find the reason as to why this thread is so long? Just curious. It may have been asked already or my answer may be somewhere in one of these pages but it's too many to read in one week. Thanks in advance.

I think it is long because people post messages and other people come along and respond. Then others read those messages and respond, compelling even more people to get involved.

But that's just a guess on my part.

Jughead,

Did you just check out in the left seat? (I thought you were a 7er B out of NYC) If so, congratulations. :D

Nope - It's been a while in the left seat for me. Never flew the 76, or the ER, and try to avoid NYC as best I can!:)

I wonder if the airline will be responsible for hotel rooms for the other 200 passengers on board, or if they can pawn it off on Uncle Sam's Fantastical EDCT Program?

Good times.

It will be interesting to see the response of the other passengers when they find out that their 11 hour flight to meet their cruise ship will now be cancelled because somebody just couldn't take it anymore. I'm starting to think that maybe the impending lawsuits might have a different target...

Delta new-hires were always told: "Some day, when you retire, you will be ushered into a special room and sworn to secrecy. Then, a curtain will be pulled back and you will be shown THE BIG PICTURE."
