A mandatory bulletin to shake a "million mile" hvc hand GMAB
In a week the DCI guys will get a memo telling us to do it also... One seamless Delta experience. Can I wait until after I've wolfed down a dozen wings from Popeyes? Sometimes that's my only chance to eat during a 5-leg day. Or maybe shake hands while I'm pushing my way upstream from using the aft lav. |

I think it's a great idea! I will have 'fun' with it too. I'm going to start by telling him that since he's going over a Million Miles, HE gets to FLY the leg!
"Step right up, here you go Mr. Million Miles, sit in MY seat! Now...see... you just push these things to the wall, then you just pull back at the end of the runway, and that guy on your right will explain everything else! What seat did you have? Why? Because I'll be sitting back there, so don't fk up the landing!":D |

Where do we go to request the 2 days prior to CQ off? I recall you could have that forced onto your schedule

The two days off prior to training applies only to qualification training, and you ask for it when you enter your AE/VD/MD bid. The days will not be forced on your line if you do not want them.
It does not. I ended up on RES up to the day I started class, no 48 hours off. Turns out I was told you still have to bid those days off and if you don't get them off then that provision kicks in I guess manually? I didn't follow up, didn't care.

Incident: Delta MD88 at New York on Apr 2nd 2014, hydraulic failure and runway excursion
By Simon Hradecky, created Thursday, Apr 3rd 2014 11:26Z, last updated Thursday, Apr 3rd 2014 11:30Z A Delta Airlines McDonnell Douglas MD-88, registration N992DL performing flight DL-886 from Atlanta,GA to New York La Guardia,NY (USA) with 118 passengers and 5 crew, was descending towards New York when the crew reported a hydraulic failure and decided to divert to New York's JFK Airport requesting runway 31L (length 14,572 feet/4,442 meters). The crew indicated they had lost all hydraulics fluid, had no brakes whatsoever, the gear doors would be open due to manual gear extension and they had no nose gear steering. JFK Tower advised emergency services that runway 31L (runways 22 active) was reserved for the emergency and would be closed as soon as the aircraft landed, they were cleared to proceed to assist the aircraft as needed after landing. The aircraft touched down and slowed on the runway, the crew requested chocks repeatedly stating they had no brakes, both engines were shut down, fire brigades told the crew they would apply chocks as soon as the aircraft came to a stop. The aircraft went off the runway at low speed and came to a stop with all gear on soft ground. The passengers disembarked normally via the rear stair of the aircraft and were bussed to the terminal. The airline confirmed a hydraulic problem prompted the crew to divert to JFK Airport due to the longer runways available. While taxiing to the gate the aircraft exited a taxiway.
