You are guaranteed freedom of speech by the Constitution, but you're not guaranteed continued employment by Delta.

Delta, or any other employer (except the government), can restrict any kind of speech they want to. The only thing that protects employees is their bargaining agent and/or the possibility of bad publicity.
Exactly. Well stated Gentlemen.

Timbo, Scambo and all ATL 777 pilots are already on the invite list. FTB, 80, Newk,Carl, Alpha, Sailing, Alan,Jughead,Bar,T,Jesse, et al. please consider yourselves invited. We are sending out a save the date around the 20th of Aug and then invites early Sept so people can bid around it. This will be RSVP due to the cost involved but we're planning on last minute arrivals. This party is with significant others and even RA is on the list so please don't be shy or worry that you won't know anyone. I have enjoyed all the conversations on the Latest and Greatest and figure this would be a great excuse to get together as many APCer's as possible. If you are interested please pm me your contact info and I will add you to my list.
The retiree's involved are; Ron Norris, Paul Faulkner, Marc Lugash, Gene Robinson, Warren Zatazalo and myself Ross Campbell. There are 3 others that are considering joining as of this time but not yet committed.
Congrats on a great career, and may you enjoy a long and healthy retirement! Cheers!

Couldn't one also do this if the report is 10-12 hours out?

Great group of guys you have on the retirement list. I will try and make the party and perhaps get some tips on how to plan for a future of unlimited time off!
Congrats!

Once done with OE and under 60 does the SIC need a medical every 6 months or get a first class medical and get it done once every 12 months. Looked in the FOM and I can't find it.
