IATA: Airline execs optimistic about profits
NEW YORK (AP) -- Top airline executives are growing more optimistic about future profit despite tough conditions in the third quarter, according to a survey released Monday by the International Air Transport Association.
In its third-quarter airline business confidence survey, the trade group said that there has been a "marked improvement in expectations for the coming year" compared with the last survey in July, despite little sign of traffic growth from June to September.
About 73 percent of chief financial officers surveyed expect an improvement in profitability over the next year, compared to 46 percent who expected things to get worse in July.
The survey revealed that executives now believe that traffic seems to be leveling off, although it is still weak.
Only three airlines posted a profit in the third quarter -- JetBlue, AirTran and Alaska Air Group. All other major carriers lost money.

I forget where in Icrew you can see how many short calls you have had. Help a brotha out?
SEC reprimands Tennessee Volunteers coach Lane Kiffin over referee comments - ESPN
Hate to see the boy coach sully what was a valiant effort and a well played game. He is rebuilding a great program but he needs to just shut up and coach.

But in all honesty the process is a little different these days so pay attention: go to deltanet, as you click on icrew you'll be logged out, log back in. Go to icrew, click on it, if you're not logged out then enter in your employee number and password. Hit okay, you'll be logged out. Go back to deltanet and log in, click on icrew, you'll be logged out. Go back and log into deltanet, click on icrew, put in your id and password, numerous pages of various warnings will come up, ignore them all like normal by just clicking okay, click on PCS, you'll be logged out.

He'll be good for keeping UT in the news for better or for worse. If it wasn't for his dad, I'm not sure UT would be viable.
When I was new to the ER I printed the entire paperwork on the 20 setting off the printer, not the 10 setting. The Captain looked at me like I was from mars... but I was just trying to save paper.

And question, are the 16 JAL MD-90s (that JAL is saying they will get rid of) a part of the 60+ MD-90s we had supposedly identified as possible purchases?
Icrew, PCS, Slip Requests, Enter Date Ranges (down there with reduce raw score and Yellow Slip stuff). If need be, contact Crew Scheduling and inform them you are a big Bama fan and they'll send you a coloring sheet and you can fill it out with your crayolas or cow poop like beer and I do. Either way, they're used to our types here in ATL.

ps, for those of you not from Alabama, you might think I am being harsh toward our good buddy Forgot to Bid. But according to the rules of the Great State of Alabama, last years football score entitles me to make any joke at the expense of Auburn University or any of its fans, as long as I don't make fun of his momma or any other close relative whom He/She may or may not be married to....
Satchip is right.
It sucks the lose the Iron Bowl because you have to quietly endure the ridicule for a whole year and they're ain't nothing you can do about it even if you've won 16 of the last 30, 11 of the last 20 and 7 of the last 9... and Bear Bryants last Iron Bowl was a loss to Auburn. So I'm going to wait, and unfortunately, I don't think Auburn will win this year either, most everyone doesn't. Which is fine because it puts all of the pressure on Alabama. Could this be 1989 all over again? Doubt it, unless Alabama's current trend of lets see how little we can score in a game continues. I still think they beat LSU because in the words of LSU fans, Les Miles is an idiot.
Man I can't wait fir the Iron Bowl... in 2010.

1) OPEC said Monday it may increase oil production in December as the International Energy Agency warned rising oil prices threaten the recovering global economy, Bloomberg reported.
2) Wonder if the 757/767 will still have a power outlet in the cockpit going forward?
3) FAA spot checks at the gates have been going on this last week, including checking the revision status on the manuals, jepps and FOMs (Captains). I got my jepps spot checked.
4) Download on itunes the Delta 411.

I did not know we were having an issue with this too. I bet it is real comforting to the passengers to see their pilot have to open their flight kits at the gate.
As for OPEC, I hope that they can actually increase production. Sometimes it is harder to get that production back up once you slow the flow of oil out of the ground.
As for JAL, time will tell...
SEC reprimands Tennessee Volunteers coach Lane Kiffin over referee comments - ESPN
Hate to see the boy coach sully what was a valiant effort and a well played game. He is rebuilding a great program but he needs to just shut up and coach.

But for your comment. He's doing EXACTLY what he needs to do. Put SLive and the SEC on notice that this lovefest isn't going to be taken sitting down. It seems he has some backing among other coaches too. It's just that Lane is the first to stand up and be counted. Come on.. get on the Lane train.. it isn't too late.
