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

If you watched the opening ceremony, when the Olympic Rings opened up towards the end of the program, and the last ring failed to open...Well, the guy that was responsible for that, according to Facebook, was found dead the next morning with multiple stab wounds.

Disclaimer: I did absolutely zero research to see if it was actually true.

As to spreading out the 717, we've actually bumped it up to 4 airframes a month. SWA is getting rid of them ahead of schedule and the mod lines are straightened out.

Chief pilot review. It means the scheduler has flagged something on your schedule to be reviewed by the CP office.

Sick call? Late to short call assignment? I guess I usually associate CP office with discipline.

I don't know what zoo they're promoting, but I like how their ad guy thinks.

It's not usually a good thing. It's strictly at the whim of the scheduler. They can flag anything. Usually a phone call can resolve it. The one thing I hear is getting attention is being out of position for short call.

How is the performance on the line? I still remember the flight ops road show where the powers to be stated the 717 was a terrible airframe and would never be purchased by Delta. This was when you could get them new.

What does CPR mean on my schedule under STAT? Have a nice day.
And the cat posters were hilarious.

It means the other pilot is over 60. It's a qual, just like Africa or Europe. You do know CPR, right?

Story posted by some other (waste of everyone's time) site, similar to 'The Onion'. Completely false story. Anyone posting comments on it, on Facebook, remind me of the car (Allstate?) insurance commercial, where the blonde chick states she met her new boyfriend online, "he's a French model." And then some frumpy, 80ktsClamp looking dude shows up :D
