Quite a gain if sold below 50 dma and bought on the up turn on volume and crossover.

Consensus target avgs. $51

We shall see about that one as it is a prediction made by humans.

They can be inaccurate at times ;)

With jet fuel at $2.42 i think.it will hit $60 a lot sooner than anyone imagines.

IMO Delta will.earn $6 billion plus in 2015.

26% profit sharing.

Pay attention. Reducing profit sharing is a mistake.

RFP WB scenario, we trade our 787 order for end of production 777W's and also order some A350's.

Is there such a thing as a 777w and which line is at the end of production? As far as I know, there is a 777 production capacity deficit right now.

77W= 777-300ER (777-300 with the GE115s and LR wing)

Dear Capt Donatelli,

Please instruct your goons, I mean "operatives," (the ones who aren't illegally interfering in LEC elections) to produce and disseminate a table showing exactly what payout, in percentage of our earnings, we would receive at various profit points. Integers of $5, 6, 7 billion should suffice for this year.

Heck, that bald guy who got FPL to babysit the golf tournament and campaign for Canoll( and get drunk on our dime) is still probably on FPL. Have him program some code for it.

Call it "prepping the battlefield."

Sincerely,
Delta Pilots

P.s. Don't you dare trade our profit sharing away for marginal improvements. Concessions are not an option.

I'd actually be interested in those numbers. Clean that letter up a bit and email it Purple. See what the response is.

There's a shot for it. No biggie. :)

Is that at the end of production? I thought they were only a little farther than halfway through their order book on that


Btw thanks for the clearing up the designation.

It's VSD, or Vertical Situation Display. It provides vertical awareness along with terrain. It's great in mountainous areas and on RNAV arrivals with a lot of crossing points and restrictions. Think the LAX arrivals for example. It's pretty awesome. A lot of guys don't use it though.

Stop Whining ;)

Very cool, I've seen it from the jumpseat. Youse guys are also getting the new Rockwell Collins Multiscan Threattrack radar in the -900's and it will be retrofitted onto all the 737's. It's pretty incredible technology, a huge advance from the 1980's radar the rest of us are using (except 777). I'd be curious to know if it works as advertised, has anyone seen it yet?
