Does anyone know the timeframe for the next AE? Will this AE be the mother of all AEs that move both DAL and NWA aircrew?

For all you iPhone guru's out there, does anyone know if it's possible to download Adobe Flashplayer onto the iPhone? Everytime I try it tells me Safari can't download it. I guess Apple blocked it so we can't put it on our phones? :(

They're running a special on the Dare, but I don't know if it will do those things. I'm pretty much a neophyte when it comes to smart phones. BTW, I don't care about watching movies, listening to music or playing games on it. Internet access is what I'm looking for. I'd also take suggestions for other phones. Keep in mind I'm not looking to switch providers.

Thanks.


I had a "Storm" for about 5 months ---hated it. Just got the "Tour". I think I'm going to like it a lot more.

What? HUH? :confused:

The times I've ridden on the a DC-9/MD-80 it always reminds me of the movie Das Boot because of all the knobs/levers/switches. Looks like a U-boat up front.

For the callouts I'm expecting to hear "5 degree downbubble, purge the tanks, and rig for silent running".

Oh, OK. Thanks for clarifying. :D

I'm a MD-88 guy and I would cry if I had to fly her. Interesting thing that I see in this photo, the AP is off, they're flying at 26,000 feet, and the altitude alert is set to 11,000ft.

The auto pilot is on, that is what the copilot is directing. He has the turn know in his hand.

Silent running??? In a DC9?? Hello... McFly! I think the only thing that gives it away more than the noise is the smoke.

It DOES look like a U-boat though. :D

I have a question about the PWA. Is it true that you can only be displaced from your category if the category is changed/deleted or the total number of pilots in category are reduced?

Let's bring all of the CRJ-900's to mainline and fly them at their full capacity not just 76 seats.
