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

A couple of days ago (on my last trip)... I don't remember where I saw this (sorry, the alzheimers is starting to kick in), but I saw a regional pilot for one of our "Delta Connection" carriers wearing a lanyard that said "ALPA" on the back of the neck and on the front of the lanyard it said something like "Delta Crew." What's up with that? Is ALPA putting out lanyards like that and intentionally helping regional pilots misrepresent themselves as Delta pilots??

No, probably got it from a family member or friend who flies for Delta. Black and Red?

Actually, yes.

Lee Moak will personally send a Delta lanyard and signed Certificate of Appreciation to any regional pilot who agrees to a one-time 4% pay concession.

For a limited time only.

I think I'm going to promote myself to Admiral. I am tired of being out ranked by RJ guys.

Bar's picture shows "Double Rear Admiral" shoulder boards. Why would he would do that? :eek:

I dread the third Saturday in October... well the 25th this year.... :(

But I am guessing the redneck meter will be buried this year. Should be amusing.

That can't be a 320ER. The overhead panel is way too archaic. :D

I wear a DAL lanyard. Reason: the food court at LGA has been instructed to give DAL employees 30% off and DAL connex 20% off. They look at my lanyard and I get 30% off. That extra 10% off paid for my $2.00 lanyard on the second visit.

Full disclosure: sometimes I wear a Chicago Cubs lanyard but I never actually played for the Chicago Cubs.
