However, when I was on the ER.... having that print out for tax season would've been worth $500.
I gave up on them after last year. It was mid march before they finally sent my report.

Wow. I've always gotten mine by Feb. 15th. But the later you wait to order the later they come.

I've found if I quote Denny Crane, the Denny Crane, I get my way.

I will quote you.

Alright, random data Monday. I mean Tuesday. May not be right, but it's free data from airfleets.

I don't know, i know Douglas airplanes last a long time. Bar would say it's more like an Irish Divorce, they're here, but they don't love you anymore.

Anyways, I wish we'd order more jets because I'm not getting the feeling we've ordered enough just to remain the same size. But that's just a gut feeling.

Widebody Growth. DAL just bought a 767er which formerly belonged to Ryan. It has been in storage and may be another parts aircraft. But maybe not...

With the SC bucket system, how does anyone not have any SCs? We've got 5 guys with 0 raw, 0 hours and 2 SCs between all 5.

The new SC buckets are pretty worthless. The notion is good but it's not being spread out.
I saw those guys and they're senior, that's all. They work zero for the month. From an efficiency aspect it seems like a waste of assets. As my wife pointed out to me when I described it to her, "Don't these pilots need to maintain some kind of currency? Isn't it dangerous for them to fly so little and lose some skills?"
