Fun fact: Due to C2012, the DPMP was the ONLY plan at Delta that went DOWN in cost last year. The DPMP coverages were improved also. ALL of the company plans went up in cost, without an increase in benefits(some cases the plan benefits got worse) in 2013.

Just think how big our profit sharing checks will be when we give them more...Profit!

Oh wait, our Profit sharing is going to be reduced by 33% by then.

Never mind!

In DKR right now. Much nicer hotel and location with good restaurant choices. Sierra Leone here we come, possibly Casablanca as well. Don't look now but EK is cutting quite a bit of service, but they want to fly MAN-MIA?

When you get done, could you come set the clock in our cars and the refrigerator?

In other news, here's a 787 pilot logging 0.03 block.
