Best 100 Rock and Roll?

Any room for:
AC/DC - (You) Shook Me All Night Long
Rush - New World Man
Thin Lizzy - Boys Are Back In Town
Travelling Wilburys, Eric Clapton - you name it

I know, some of these weren't from the 70s.

And there's always Lita Ford:

True, but remember, management needs mainline pilots to actually show up at work, so management can't overstep. They have to chip away at it slowly.

It is ours. There is clear direction from ALPA National that small jet flyingis now outside our contract and thus no longer our concern. I am fighting this redefinition of Delta Flying as hard as I possibly can.

With another pilot group seated at the table ( as they will have to be to enforce their contract ) it is only natural for the conversation to drift to items of mutual interest. So... what else is on your mind? Well how about 737's? Yeah you know the Delta pilot comes up in 24 months from now ... so, what you thinking? That C Series is supposed to be a hell of a jet... " and before you know it there are competing proposals, or maybe "supposals," floating around.

While some of our labor leaders do not like ALPA's Admin Manual Section 40, it exists to stop competing proposals ever going to management. The Admin Manual serves to protect us, we should not ignore it.

There's a good bit of anecdotal evidence to support the assumption that a RFP was sent to regional contractors' management prior to C2012 negotiations to cost out management's scope ideas. We can't stop that from happening one company to another, but maybe we can prevent pilots from being participants in such whipsaw.


The C Series with five across seating, from 130 to 160 seats has an undisclosed order from a major airline. The major airline does not want the competition to know of its order. This according to the Bombardier website.:eek:

We had our own version of Sweet Home Alabama that we sung at the Supper Club when the Velcro Pygmies were in town.

You know what problem I had with the Supper Club is? I was sober.


BTW, I'm going deaf listening to Mumford and Sons album in my truck.
