Hey everyone they posted the hiring on delta net. It's official! Best of luck to all. It had a interesting note that it's 50 per month until early 14' then 20 per month but that is likely to change according to SD. I assume this can only mean that more than 300 are likely. I sure hope so for all those involved.
Good Luck everyone, Delta is head and shoulders the best of the 4 airlines I have worked for!
As a side note my buddy at Compass MEC said Delta told them 115 on Friday. Don't quote me but that seems a little high as if I recall the max was 25% of the list on any given 12 months based on the seniority list as of Aug 2010. I don't believe in Aug. 2010 we had 460 pilots. Something to watch. I sure hope Delta brings in a good mix of Military guys/gals. Even though I was civilian it sure was nice to have the wide spectrum of ideas and experiences.

CPZ has 446 pilots on the July 2013 list (451 on the April 2013 list). The July bid packet has 441 pilots listed (Management pilots are not in the bid packet), 216 Captains and 225 FO's.

How could a 5300 be a furlough bypass?

Yep, defaults to 2nd line. Your technique sounds good, and is about what I ended up doing. We probably just got unlucky with multiple RWY changes and overweight for several. I did talk to some fifi guys and mentioned we had this... they were all unimpressed, "ho hummm, zis is zumting ve has for soooo long.... Retard, retard, retard!"
The whole TDU thing is actually derived from what NW used to do pre-merger.

yeah they changed the PBS denial methodology. It's in the last PBS notes doofer they sent out 2 weeks ago or so. Honestly it all sounded much better and a good improvement. I was just surprised by the results... it gave me everything I asked, I just apparently never knew before how many totally crappy trips met all my criteria that were being denied before lol.

*** Takeoff Data Upload: Sweet Function. Just back yourself up. We were provided with the wrong data a couple nights ago. One check of the Paper WDR showed us how gross the error was.

I don't remember if they're were voluntary furloughs back in 02'. If so - makes sense.
