Thanks Rockyboy.... I didn't know him. I was based there a lifetime ago, and there were several guys named Jim...

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.

Not sure of the glioblastoma diagnosis, but I understand that it was some type of brain tumor.
And yes, on the glioblastoma rate with Delta pilots, it appears to be higher than average.

Condolences to his friends and family. From all mentions he was a great man.
