I fly with a Captain who is very aggressive and successful getting GS. Although only middle of the pack seniority-wise he does very well - 3 GS this month.

If he thinks a GS may go out while he is flying he will change his voice-mail message to something like "If this is Delta scheduling with a GS offer - I accept." He says it works.

I have also had crew schedules leave me a message saying "We see that you are flying, we are awarding you GS XXX, we will give you until 30 minutes after you land to call back and accept."

I think they might only do this if you are their best hope at covering a trip.

Now that I've finished my EFB training, do I still have to carry the MCRB? I think I read we still have to carry it but can't remember.

Yep, gotta carry all the paper stuff until the FAA validates EFB performance/procedures. 6 months is the timeframe I've heard a couple of times...

Whats This?


Delta Air Lines to use own pilots on London routes • 3:54 PM
Clark Schultz, SA News Editor

Delta Air Lines (NYSEAL) agrees to use its own pilots on trips to London, instead of outsourcing work to Virgin Atlantic.
The decision could help appease Delta pilots ahead of contract talks.
Delta owns 49% of Virgin Atlantic

These are on sale for $45 on Amazon. Waterproof. Hush Puppies are extremely comfortable (and usually pricier)!
