Any one know if there is a place to view your total flight duty period hours on icrew yet? Or if they plan to make that information available to us?

I wouldn't have voted for this if I could see the future. I wouldn't be at Delta, if I knew the future, except maybe to own it and give you humility lessons. My backpack would be made by Louis Vuitton, and Scambo would have to carry it.

I've got no comeback for this, so I give you a cyber-nut-kick.:D

Our health care costs go up every year, as does cost of living. It's water under the bridge, but you can bet that the company will pull the same stunt in 2015, since it worked so well on us in 2012. IE; pay for your own 'raise'. Just my opinion.

I am so far impressed that the union seems to be taking a harder line with the company. Not necessarily one that is confrontational, but one that recognizes that in a negotiation, if one party comes away feeling ripped off it's not a good thing. Food for thought: How much has executive compensation increased at DL since bankruptcy?

More food for thought: We are industry leading as a company in every metric. As pilots, we must lead the industry in compensation-in every metric. As much as it would be nice to rest on the laurels of others accomplishments, we need to be at the bleeding edge. That's our lot.

I was under the impression that the pilots profit sharing was changed to match what they already offered the other employees so while I agree it funded the COLA's I don't believe the other groups gave up anything, they were already at this percentage post merger.

It a little glacier coming from the lake. Pretty kool, unless someones F250 and ice house are on it while it hits your house!:eek:

Yeah, usually a small amount of ice will build up on the lake. Then, if the wind picks up, it'll push all the ice onto shore.

Don't want to jinx it.

Been very nice not to read about "you know what" lately.

Just remember.

Backpack. Humble. No Greed. Mr. Softy for everyone!

That about wraps it.

Oh yeah, know your contract;)

(I'd look for under, or side boob as was presented the other day, just don't know how to post pics here and I am not going to have my 10 year old show me. Mom will be angry. Again.)

[low, muffled groan]

When did we start doing LAS-NRT? NWA used to do it on the 747 but that was a long time ago.
