Badflaps....

Many of us still employed yank..ees are in the $50 seat club for men too, and we have S-2 available!

I'll buy you a beer next time we sit together and watch our flight depart, although I might be a little more agitated than a retired guy!!!!

I was one of the lucky Yank ees who happened to interview with a former North East Chief Pilot! In ATL! I had no idea the Civil War was still on, until I went into Wagon Wheel Willy's (a country bar on Old National) and at 11pm the band started playing Dixie. The whole place jumped up and started clapping and singing.

I looked at my (yankee) buddy and said, "We'd better get out of here right now. I think this is the song they play just before they hang the Yankees!"

Today is the 50th anniversary of me wandering into the DAL training center. Concrete block building with oil heat in the hallway,(You know, the one behind the abandoned gas station on Virginia Av.) Slide projectors and colored pencils. Deltah is an equal oppatunity employah.....thet means we hire yank..ees!
Yuk, yuk. I am reminded only because I received my notice to pay my $50 airport seat rental so I may, for one more year, watch the airplanes come and go. Hang in there boys and girls...........

Congratulations on your career.

Basically, the company can now waste our time as much as they want without penalty. It's time to change that. Our time is far more valuable than Delta treats it. When we're doing anything company-related on a trip, we must be on the clock.

Like the 2 hr LAX-ONT LIMO at rush hour. I think it pays $18.50. GMAFB

Wait a minute......that pays surface DH time? I've done it a couple times and not gotten paid a dime.

I seem to recall a list for each sfc DH in the PWA. its only for specific airport pairs. Someone correct me if Il wrong.

Regardless...it should pay no different than DH in an aircraft.

Yep. Complete farce. It pays around $12 for a limo (I mean back-breaking pos van) from MCO-TPA
