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

Days being purchased for the current year must show availablity. If the weeks are for next year it can't be denied. Had you put the request in prior to 1 APR they would have been awarded. Once that date past you may or may not get them.

This is true with some exceptions for December, January and April. Otherwise you are correct that they can't be denied for a subsequent vacation year.

Another 21 people retired/left seniority list. That's 101 for the year. Averaging right at 20 per month.

Thanks!

great headset, surprisingly well made considering how little there is...

My CA headset replaced my green DC headclamps-with-earplugs-setup for all-day-long turboprop flying and it was great.

None of the conventional headsets can match the comfort of a band that goes around the head instead of over the head...

I miss mine, lost on a 737 OE trip in CVG years ago...it's easy to miss when getting off the jet and I didn't have my name on it...

The TSO'd version is just really expensive.

Cheers

That's an important statistic if you are at the bottom quarter of the list. I'm in the top quarter and the retirement movement was 4. Underwhelming for me. Unless they replace those top 4, it doesn't mean much.

Re: Clarity Aloft
I've been using the TSO'd model in the 88 for a couple of years. Works great, do not even know it even on you head. A friend who left DAL for SWA recommends it for 737 use, but I question his judgement.
