The latest crew planning update for July? Basically we'd ideally like to hire for the NYC MD88, but we aren't authorized to hire so we'll just displace NYC7ERs.

well if that captain at the atl employee parking lot had had his way, there would be no more FTB. :D

The real question is, could you have called in sick? I mean, if you were injured or dead were you really sick? And would you have to verify the sickness? Or could the captain who hit you have verified it? :D

Insurance may not cover it if you had a prior history of being hit by cars.

Hi, and welcome to last month's news, Shy. ;)



They are sure paying for it in the ATL320 category. A sizable portion of the captains will be well north of 300,000 this year. I've already made more this year in 6 months than my entire last 12 months as an RJ captain.

Ya'll junior Delta pilots need to stop green slippin' everywhere so hiring can begin sooner. ;)

let me puy on my hate on commuting commuters hat and answer this...

first of all, don't call in sick unless youre sick. are you sick if you get hit by a car? no. you're injured, which is not the same as being sick.

don't be a thief.

It was a mess.

The Roberts Rule created a great deal of animosity at NWA. I suggest we avoid a repeat.

Not to mention throw down fist fight in the chief pilots office at late as 1999! When I got hired I was told the quickest way to start a fight was to walk into the lounge at the training hotel, and yell "Red Book Green Book". It would be bad for a very long time to go back to that play book.
