DLG is FAA also.

Any ideas what's going on? Perhaps a space filler for the FAA or a company executive?
Use the company directory under Delta Net... might be a DGS guy.

You just never know. I live in NY and got based in ATL when I started in August. I did the commute you are talking about a few times. Plus, I do know we still have a few NYC/NJ guys commuting to ATL for a few more weeks waiting for a conversion.

As for the invalid ID? Who knows. BTW, in my experience out of NYC, 90% of the time the guy that booked the jumpseat no-showed.

Maybe an NYC based pilot on an out of base GS? Just a guess though.

Thanks for the information regarding bluetooth and the surface. I'm looking at the Bad Elf Pro+, which uses Glonass and GPS and has a 24 hour battery life, and up to 5 devices can be connected at the same time (sharing). I'll let you know how it works, IN MY CAR of course!

Thanks everybody. I will check out that last recommendation when I get home. Was just curious since his employee number was invalid when I looked him up. Not trying to make a scene or anything .

FTB, am I living your airline life in a parallel universe? First the spot on description of trying to say goodbye to passengers from the 127 Hours-like crevice of the 717 and now this post after I did the quickest post flight walk around last night here in Quebec. Keep representing! (Where's the emoji for "freezing my b@lls off"?)
