Oops. Guess C-17 pilots aren't alone on this.

Saw this on the recent Delta Flight Ops Comm email:
"We boarded in Detroit headed to Saginaw, MI, buckled in, lights were turned down and we proceeded to sit for 20-30 minutes at the gate. There was apparently an issue with the plane yet the pilots and attendant provided little to no information or updates. This was extremely frustrating and likely dictated lower overall scores from me."
After checking Travel net over the next week there are no mainline flights that we operate to Saginaw! Only RJs. Glad management is hammering us for lack of PA's on RJs. Yikes.

Isn't the Dreamlifter operated by Atlas? Boeing also getting hammered for outsourced flying.

Just because ALPA doesn't issue a press release or blastmail that states displeasure with an action by the Company doesn't mean they aren't doing something about it.

Day prior. It used to be behind in base reserves with a high yellow slip, but now OOB WS are behind all reserves.
This is another thing I'd like to see changed back. I understand OOB WS being behind an in base reserve who wants the trip (in base pilots should have priority,) but being behind a reserve who DOESNT' want to fly?

My wish list is for those of us who live in base to be able to swap with the pot closer in than 0700 day prior. People rarely call in sick that far out. Last month I watched NY based guys pick up 2 of our sweetest trips, FCO and MUC.
