Immediately after showing the Delta 767, the voice says….

Really?

I think they missed the fact that we just went through one of the most successful mergers in airline history and made over $400 million last quarter. We've got spirit. :rolleyes:


Merger is nothing compared to being where we are post BK. Laughable that line "they don't see the spirit that's gotten us through the tough times."

Hope Richard shows them who the beitch is. :D

Didn't Delta do something different when SWA was coming to town? Home town airline for 70 years, etc.

I think Richard is the scariest guy in the prison right now. He took over A block (NYC) in a brilliant coup and now he's decided to take over S block with a power move on a weaker gang. RA has accomplished everything he's said he would do since the day he got here. I don't think ALK has a chance to stop him in their hometown market. ALK should've tAken the deal.

What's a CPR? Nm. Chief pilot review.

Someone was reading the threads on jetcareers and here.... "They don't understand that they can't do this because.. alaska!"

That forum has been interesting to read and someone over there, on our side, sure is giving a lot of details to Juno.

Juneau

Juno

:D

Just FYI. Carry on.

As far as details, flight ops approvals don't seem like they should be "trade secrets", right? Either they can or cannot shoot the approach and get equal reliability with the "hometown" airline.

Call 1: "It's extremely hot back here in the back of coach." Okay, we'll cool it off. Shows 72F.

Call 2: "It's extremely hot, I don't know if it's broken, but it's like 100 degrees back here." (shows 70F) Okay, we'll cool it off.

Call 3: "Guys, really, it's very hot back here. This is not good working conditions. Can you please cool it off?!?" Showed 68F.

After landing CA: "Hey, that was as cold as it could get." "Well, it was very very hot." "It showed 68 degrees in the back?" "68!? I keep my house at 68."

Flight was 1:30 long.

It is fun when one thinks it is hot and one thinks it is cold. I've been successful in getting them to argue among themselves. If the FO can instigate a large enough fight, then the food hoarding begins, meaning the FO can score the spoils for a Quinella Win!
