I'd be very suprised if it ended up being 1:1 though. As we agressively continue our seasonal abandonment of the great ER buildup of 07-08 in favor of feeding Skyteam hubs with larger gauge equipment, I can't possibly see how it would be 1:1 unless we go back to those routes we've already pulled ER's off of most or all of the year and put 330's on them. Highly unlikely. Any 330 that is an ER replacement smells of "capacity dicipline" big time.

From the Flying Ops Update, May 2014, just emailed to me. I clicked a link in an email to arrive at this, and as such it is NOT from the DeltaNet and thus open for public consumption as all emailed data. These hiring numbers are super low, this must be wrong???
Pilot Hiring
New Hire class 11-2014 will began on May 5 bringing the total number of new hires this year to 24. Flight Operations anticipates hiring approximately at least 50 pilots per month through April 2015.

I really hope they didn't throw RSV's under the bus. Nothing on day one before noon needs to be in whatever they agreed to, and a 2 hour long call leash to preserve 12 hour call outs is absolutely unworkable. LC will have to increase as well.
No idea what's coming, but the tone was certainly upbeat. As for the 1:1 330/767 replacement, I agree it's unlikely but keep in mind that there will be more overflying of Narita in the future requiring aircraft that can do that mission. It's hard to say where it will put us from a fleet perspective. It seems like everything flying is chock-a-block these days.

Effective, balanced letter from MD, I thought.

It's at 1200 as has been discussed but I noticed that I'm on LC from midnight to 0200 which implies they can change my status last minute tomorrow. Kind of makes it hard for a commuter when I'm planning on using the first 2 hours of sc to commute in.
In theory they could call me at midnight and say I have a 1200 sign in for a trip.

Anyone else getting a database error from apc when trying to go backwards to 15619 page or earlier?

soooooooooo......now Endeavor is keeping their 50 seat rj's......curious how that's going to work with our new scope.
Is there anyone out there that has 50 seat jets that's not playing ball the way Delta likes? Because there is no way in he!! we are relieving that again.
