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

IAV84DAL,

Are you former Navy P3 guy based in HNL, lived in STL for a while during furlough and now lives in DC with an attorney girlfriend? If so, we have flown together.

Considering it. Why do you want to be rid of me so badly?

Said not a word about you quitting here!

Your name came up recently at the chit chat.

Like I said, Jack misses you.;)

Be forewarned tho....It's not nearly as professional as this place!:D

I support a sunset on Profit Sharing. Phase it out. It isn't pay, and it isn't equitably distributed. When it goes away, we'll all be better off.

Is there a Mrs. iav84dal that knows you feel this way? :cool:

And at the time they were correct. Now that it is not worthless people want to get rid of it. That kind of sounds like buy high and sell low.

Come on man. Click my name, check my avatar, you'll know who I am.

Truth be told I expected more push back. I'm actually encouraged.

Let me guess, you won't be senior someday.

If I had to verify a sick call, I'm pretty sure a printout of the last couple pages would suffice.

There goes APC.

If we're going to continue to offer management the concession of scope relief for some 100 Q400's flown by Horizon in the event of a merger with ALK I want something very big for it. That's too much flying of too many routes by too many non mainline pilots.

Hello??

Section 1. O. 5. 2) allows our code on 35% of the Alaska marketed seats. So, help me out. Is 35% of a Q400 more or less than 35% of a 737-900?

The way I see it, the Q700 operated by Horizon and Skywest RJ's are more restrictive. What are you seeing?

You know, to a point, I used to enjoy some of the jokers stuff on the DALPA board. However, the detente of ALPA koolaid guzzlers versus the DPA hardcore which we have generally enjoyed here has been partially shattered by an out of left fielder pseudo-intellectual.

I think whoever labeled him a troll had it mostly right.

He is anti seniority, anti greenslip, anti work the contract, anti high earning, and pro out of left field.

If you allow him to put you off balance, may I recommend the ignore function. Not all input is valuable.
