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

I can't say enough good things about Dr. William Adcox. He is just east of PTC on hwy 54. Family Medicine Specialists is the clinic name. He saved my life. What else can I say?

Sad to hear. Do you know if it was glioblastoma? I never met Jim but I've had two close friends, also Delta Pilots, who died of that in the past 3 years.

It's supposed to be 'rare' but I've heard of a lot of pilots getting it. It's survival rate is only 3%.

I think it says in crew staffing newsletter will be flown by ATL and DTW crews. No west coast 717 base. They will also be doing DTW-AUS, so just keep going to LAX up the coast and back and you have your rotation. Sounds like a nice trip.
