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

The father has retired from DAL. He did a lot of good to DAL, cut a lot of people who should not be here. He started airlineapps to help the industry finally get info on perspective pilots organized. Not sure if he is running it or sold out.
The son is a pilot at DAL.

Both are great guys!

It will be interesting to see how the 20 330 displacements flush out. That could make this bad for those in the middle of the list. I don't see this glass nearly as half full as you do.

Well, congrats to Captain Flanigan... I doubt we'd ever see anyone sit #1 for 8 years again.

The nest guy will be there for 2...

Geez, get over it already. Unless you're 4 years old, Age 60 was the rule when YOU started, too. Does that mean YOU have to retire at Age 60?

Maybe since you keep acting like a spoiled 4 year old.
