Airline Pilot Central Forums - Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?

I thought it was worth mentioning that he did not campaign too hard.

Now who are we going to vote for
Chair
Vice-Chair
Sec/Tres.

I know who my votes are.

Are we warming up the new hire 'bullpen' at the Widget Kremlin?

Random chatter going on out in the universe (and no, APC is not the univere)

The secret scope grievance "settlement" and Armando's resolution that passed so overwhelmingly during the subsequent backlash made him very popular. He received the most votes of any candidate, FO or Capt, by a good margin.
If he wants to be the first FO ever elected Chairman, I think he could do it. I doubt if he will try though. He is an unassuming fellow and wouldn't want to be seen as "overstepping".

Just so you know there is a marked change on the Delta.com website when it comes to pilots.
We were not even accepting apps now we are! Look!

Pilots

Greater success and satisfaction are on the radar screen for professional aviators who land their talents at Delta. Ensuring that our passengers arrive at their destinations safely and on-time, our pilots earn their wings while helping our airline move full speed ahead.

Even though we are not actively hiring pilots and will not be reviewing applications until hiring resumes, individuals interested in joining our team of professional pilots may apply or update their existing applications via AirlineApps.com.

Visit Delta Pilot Basic Qualifications to view our basic requirements for pilot employment.

Just poking fun at the talk from this AM! :D

interesting ;)

Yep, Larry's a great guy and he was our furlough rep while we (and he) were out. He'll do well.

IMHO Larry will do quite well and will probably surprise all of us.

They are the two correct guys for the FO Rep job, IMHO.
