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

I don't know what you whiners are whining about. We are affiliated with ALPA national. They have the best strategic planners and attorneys in the business. You don't think they saw this contingency years ago and have already got a plan?

Amirite??

Don't forget if you send your order back to the kitchen the chef will probably spit in it.

And he won't send it back out to you for another two years.....

Sending it back to the kitchen reminds me of that scene from (road trip?) where Horatio Sans is the chef. Just thinking about it makes me laugh.

Not only did you beat me to it, yours was better. :D

Ya know. It's just strange when you're working an accident and one of the outlines in the biohazard suits just keeps catching your eye. In our diverse new world there are some who can make even a whole body PBE hood sexy.

In all seriousness, I have been very impressed with our current NTSB Chair. Having lost some close friends in an accident that fell under her watch I closely studied the outcome. The service delivered to the families, our industry, and the US taxpayer were exemplary.

ALPA apparently fails to realize how the NTSB is specifically designed not to be pressured by advocacy groups. Objective data drives the process.

Does anyone know ... Is ALPA involved in this at all? Do we have party status? Are these pilots members of our association? In fact, was the Pilot in Command a scab? Why are we getting involved?

I'm pretty sure at one point it got up to six years.

Maybe because 4 ALPA carriers operate the 777?
