Trying to find that DAL 747 image from Air Line Pilot magazine. That was nice.

Saw quite a few of these old birds, in Delta paint, while performing touch-and-go's in KVCV yesterday. Quite the collection of old Delta airplanes, getting some sun in the high desert of California.

Hey guys,

I need some bidding help. I bid reserve for Feb to take a break. I haven't done it in so long that I can't remember some of the basics. I'm trying to move a couple of x days but can't get it to accept. Keep getting a message that says its an invalid date but both days are in Feb and I'm trying to figure out why it won't go through. Any of you reserve superstars help a brother out? Thanks!

Buzz that got me last month while panicking to move days at last minute! I was trying the PCS for the wrong month..... Hope your issue is as simple as that!

Anyone know where the contract language is for short call buckets? I know it was in a Letter of Agreement but can't find it on Alpa's website.

Thanks.

Make sure you selected the correct bid period in the drop box box, PCS defaults to the current bid period. I make that mistake all the time.
