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

You know, we don't celebrate stuff enough around here. I say we celebrate this. I'm going to see how many pics that I can find of life at Delta and NWA in 1965ish.

Congrats badflaps. Btw, how did that name come about anyhow?

A pal of mine from Butch McGuire's had never flown on a 727 and all could say was "flaps up and down", "flaps up and down." Since my deportment was generally in question, well, you get the idea....... Go to Butches' in Chicago, they clear it all up.... Misspent youth. Beer is on "Flaps."
