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

Are they ANA birds?

Seems that's what's on the tails.

I wonder why ANA didn't want them...or were these some of the ones that were having battery problems?

At a former 121 carrier in a past life of mine we indeed had the faa going after some guys for deviating from the script in the fom on the takeoff pa while moving. Violating sterile cockpit.

So yes, they (the faa) have done it.

Looked at one of our VOL I and it clearly states to give the following pa with the script in quotes.

Seems to me a chief line check pilot has nothing to say regarding faa action. If you get the wrong faa type riding in front or back, that is what matters.

So, communicating with the FAs (and by extension, the pax) where we are in the departure process after the longest safety video in safety video history is violating sterile cockpit? I'll take my chances. Especially when I watch all the AA guys having to pull over waiting for their numbers. We're trying to be safe AND on time, right? Sheesh.

It'll probably be ok, as long as you bring extra batteries for your flashlight! :eek::D

pretty sure saying what number you are for takeoff is OK, but i'm talking about the guys that ramble on for a minute or so, talk about the wx at destination and what not.
