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

Question. ...

What do users of this board think of shutting down the ALPA web board?

Apparently it costs money and is a PITA to administer. Legally it has some risks too.

I like the idea that we can discuss crew room stuff without being in the open, but I have been admonished there for vanilla recaps of Flight Ops briefings.

Yet, the same old personal attacks are not interesting.

It says something that we moderate ourselves better than pilots posting to coworkers are sometimes willing to do. I may toss up a resolution to kill the ALPA board. We might be able to talk APC into password protecting a forum.

What does everyone else think?

Lol. Some wack job puts up some religious posts every couple days letting us know that we are all going to hell if we don't believe in Christianity. I hope I never fly with that moron.

nice to see delta doing seasonal service from DTW to CUN,GCM,PUJ,SJU,and NAS. GCM I don't think has ever been offered some went away for awhile. Now Select my "SSP" number and hire me to fly them!

I flew DTW-GCM 4 years ago. I think it was Saturday only service during certain seasons.

I don't post on the topic, but I am happy to be a moron in your eyes.

That's the main purpose of the forum over there. Let the nuttier ones out there post their lunacy, so they can be identified, and avoided. :D

I would also like to see an APC password protected Delta Pilots only forum where we all have to use our Real Names! :eek: :D And where Underboob wouldn't be Censored!

Free Jesse!

Great ideas Timbo. Especially Real Names and Underboob.

"Hello my name is Deadhead and this is my fellow ALPA brother, we are calling on you and your neighbors with an interesting article titled Flying the Line. We are wondering if you'd be interested in reading this and possibly stopping by our house of worship this Sunday for a reading from the book of Constructive Engagement by our Pastor Lee Moak. "
