Looks like DTW 717 will do DTW-LGA-MIA/TPA and JFK-BOS

 

That was an amazing video of an event I was not aware of. It was sickening, but I don't feel comfortable judging people confronted with a situation I have thankfully never had to face. From the comfort of my easy chair, I can definitely say that I would never do that. After enduring decades of war and an approaching certain death and probable torture, I may not be as confident.

Also, I may be alone in this: the kids should have definitely been boarded first, but as society increasingly insists on gender equality, I'm starting to question why female lives are more important to save than male ones.

 

Alaska and Delta?s relationship unravels. Deciding when a partnership is over is a big call | CAPA - Centre for Aviation

I'm thinking the merger/consolidation "ship has sailed" with Alaska. Who knows though? Growing up I never thought a military veteran's "EARNED" retirement benefits would be threatened by an un-Constitutional, uber-liberal, continue to pay-the-unemployed, income-equality-minded Commander-in-Chief like we have today. Guess that showed me.

Unfortunately he is on the list at ASA and says all sorts of stupid s%!+ over on the ASA L&G thread too. We feel your pain.

 

It was an amazing group of pilots who were truly unified. They have been furloughing for the last few years. Many of their top tier had left over the last few years, and gone other places. Almost all of those whom I knew there very recently started working for NKS or VX and when that happened, I knew it was really getting bad. Some of them had been there 15+ years.

 

I'm not sure that's entirely fair. I rocked the original iPhone for over 4 years. The first 2.5 it was flawless. For the next year it was slower but still worked great with only marginal battery drain. The last 6 months it still worked but basically unupdateable, but so what. Typing this on a 6 year old Mac, runs everything well. No hardware will last forever in an exponentially expanding world of software built for ever increasing hardware capabilities. But Apple does a stellar job with product longevity with consistent build quality that only a few of their competitors have even begun to attempt to emulate and an OS that's as universal and timeless across generational platforms as you can get.

Most of the other copy cat tablets and iClone phones are one off orphanware from the moment you peel the protective film off the screen.

 

Meh. Put it on the Shuttle and I'll be impressed.

 

well, we bought my parents an ipad 1 right before there was an ipad 2, now the ipad 1 is not updatable. i thought SD or someone mentioned that was a concern probably right below the concern of buying Ipads while trying to get cozy at the cozy cone with microsoft.

 

I've got the iPad 1... works just as good as the day I got it almost 4 years ago.

I couldn't download MyRadar (which I highly recommend everyone get as t-storm season approaches) to it as that requires OS 6 or beyond.

 

Heard that Travis AFB has one sitting on the ramp with no crew.
