Does SD make deals? I guess he's an attorney, so maybe, yeah. Got to be the 330NEO then. Which combined with the aforementioned rules out the A350. Or not...

When is that board meeting?

Here you go:
Delta Air Lines, Inc. - News & Events - Events Calendar

It says there's an earnings call on Oct. 16, but I couldn't find the actual BOD meeting date. I'm sure it's in there somewhere but I'm watching football right now (Seagulls vs. Cowgirls)...:D

You are so blinded by your ideological BS that you can't even appreciate the subtle irony of history. From the British perspective, the colonists were terrorists and traitors to the crown. From the colonists perspective, they were patriots freeing themselves of oppression.

Menachem Begin planned and ordered the bombing of the King David Hotel. General Curtis LeMay said himself that if the U.S. lost World War II he would have been tried as a war criminal for his fire bombing of Japanese cities.

They both won their wars and so they are heroes and not terrorists. The colonists won so George Washington is the father of our country and not a traitor to the British army. He came to fame serving as a Major in the British army in the French and Indian wars. He was rewarded by the crown with large swaths of what is now Ohio. From their viewpoint he was a traitor.

I guess I can try to spell it out more clearly for you. Your view of history depends upon where you sit. I know you are so wrapped up in ideological BS that you view the world through a soda straw. Open your mind and you will see there is whole big world out there; not just the little tidbits that cute blonde woman read to you from a teleprompter. (why are they all blonde ?)

Oh, and Carl I got my college education at the Air Force Academy, a known hotbed of left wing radicalism.

So Alfa, which is it, occupied Palestine or Israel?

Cheeeesh! Just when we finally get this thread off of Religion it unerringly steers for politics. :eek:

Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue.

Easy Ace, you're not the only one who risked you're life for your country. Doesn't make you any smarter, or more credible. Lots of us were in real fights, in real wars, and think your point of view is just plain wrong. Careful about taking credit for something based on "risking your life".

You post of picture of you in that, on the 777 flight deck... Well, I don't think you'll have to buy beer for a while.

No guts, no glory!

I've seen both ends of the "risk" spectrum while logging the same "combat time", or were you being rhetorical?
