The thing I like about that is I'm pretty sure the Germans are all over this and have been for quite some time. In other words, I think machines tend to like bigger planes vs. smaller ones. Maybe we can pay some hacker to put a line of code in that says something along the lines of "if A= > 0, then order X times the number of A380's"

From a trader's standpoint. It's time to short this stock.

If you still have your stock, now would be a good time to consider selling it. At the very least, sell half.

A plan that can and does change, not in our favor, even during an easilly predicted near term economy with relatively stable oil prices. Capacity dicipline FTW.

By the way, does anyone have any projections RWT the VAt JV? If we can't reach an agreement, we get 75% of the flying proportional to the % of revenue shared, or something like that. So according to the DALPA update, 75% of 50% (assuming its a "metal neutral" profit/loss sharing JV) we are guaranteed 37.5% of the flying.

But 37.5% of what flying? Total trans Atlantic? If so, where are we right now WRT that if we roll in the VAt flying?

Or is it 37.5% of the US-UK flying? If so, where are we now?

So what is our floor regarding the 37.5%? More, the same or less DAL pilot flying than today, all other things equal?

I'm feeling $15 and higher! (The same way I feel for an instant 7 or 11 when playing craps in Vegas too. Probably don't need to tell you how that turns out.)

I agree, stock price may only be about 14, but way too much float out there. Look at shares outstanding, ouch. I sold my stock a long time ago.

And any idiot who took advice from Financial Engines had their Delta stock dumped at under $8 per share and put into mutual funds that have went nowhere the last couple years. I've never seen investment advice as bad as what that place tells me I should do with my Delta accounts.

My accounts are up over 25% the last 3 years and I have no clue what I'm doing....had I followed the financial engines advice I would be down more than 10%.
