Fill out the sick leave verification form completely except for the doctors signature.
Make sure the reason for the visit "describes the nature of the illness in general terms" This is really key for the 4th floor carreer types that process these requests.

A) Give them OM type leadership to short circuit the MEC to deliver a TA that the company wants, and

B) Someone who will devote MEC support towards reelecting Moak next Nov.

You can forget AA on that count, and maybe VS for the PR value, but expect a last minute entry who will have the support of the recall 10.

Does Art not want LM for another term? Have you asked him?

So, it depends. 95-99% of the time you'll be OK with the international bag in the closet.

Also, I'm not sure, but if there is only one bag upfront, you might be able to get an international up there. Might be too long, I've never seen/tried it.

Well, while you are at it, how about you?

LM for another go around?

Funny you bring that up!! A little birdy had to do an acceptance flight on 2 717's Thanksgiving day so we could write the check to SWA and "own" the aircraft. They were them on our list this keeping them in compliance with the scope agreement.
The 717's were still in full AirTran garb in and out and were actually flown by Airtran pilots but as soon as the flight was done and the check written DAL was in compliance with the scope clause!
Jets are real and owned by DAL but they aren't even close to being on line.

Prior to Delta writing the check, the airplane still belongs to AirTran. Who should fly it at that point? If the situation was reversed, would we allow pilots from another airline to fly our aircraft before they actually owned it??

I know and fully support my Reps. A couple of months ago, I asked the same question ..."How does a CBA abrogate my personal rights under HIPPA?"

It was forwarded to contract admin and I'm still waiting for a reply.....
