Not aimed at you NewK, but I think you guys are looking at this from the wrong perspective. Delta does these things for the FA's to show them they don't need a Union, Ma Delta will take care of them...

What is there to be confused about? Oh, "don't get greedy" when looking at that FA buffet. Eat your sandwich. :D |

I didn't even get a turkey sandwich. It's ok though. I had a great layover and the wings were good. :D
But it says "pilots," not pilot. There can only be one newK! http://i938.photobucket.com/albums/a...id/temp-88.jpg |

Yep, that!
I wonder if/when the food finally showed up to the place where the greatest pilots in the world walk through the door? :) (I'm all about having a healthy amount of Delta pride, but that sign does make me roll my eyes a bit) |

Now I know why they put the sign on the door in JFK ops. You're based there. :)

Good example: A carrier battle group. The carrier exists to take care of the fighters that take care of the ships around the carrier, which in turn take care of the carrier.
GG, Bad example. I can't tell by your post but assume that you are joking. A self licking ice-cream cone is something that serves no useful purpose other than self sustainment. Besides the carrier does not exist to take care of the fighters. Scoop |

Good catch. I've paid $5111.79.$272,920 so far, money well spent.
If we were to go back to the old system of a pay cap, I wonder how many pilots Delta would need to hire. I bet it would be over a thousand. |

I'm barely over $4000 in dues so far this year, and I feel like I'm working too much.

So, yeah, they would have to hire 22% more pilots, or find another way to make reserves fly more, etc. if we went back to a hard cap of75 hours. The past 5 years of stagnation is not totally due to age 65. The stagnation was also due to death of the hard 75 hour pay cap. |

I just heard it from a captain. Take it or leave IMHO.
Oh, do you have the link? That sounds AWESOME :P As I have read, Delta mostly does hiring from the inside. I'm new to the airline stats and how they work :/ Exp: PPL w/ Instrument :P Warthog Take it for what it's worth as the training dept. is notoriously rampant with rumors. My question is: where are are all the current 88 folks going to flow? With little growth on the international side of the house where are we projecting to go? |
