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

Connie's taken many a plane that no one wants and turned it into a gem. But I think there are freighters sitting in the desert as we speak. But you never know... it's hard for Connie to turn down an airplane, at the right price.

Hey military folks, question, what's a good forum for the latest and greatest gouge about joining the military to fly? I wanted to pass it on to a wannabe high school senior I just met who is interested in the academy (not Comair academy but Naval academy) and Navy.

Tell him/her to check out the Coast Guard Academy too. All the benefits but without the dis associated sea tours. Plus you get tough two week deployments to the Carribean instead of the desert.

A lot of former Navy/Marine/Army guys came over to the CG to improve QOL.

I'm guessing 717. Crew trying to saving every cent possible even though Ops says keep the pax comfortable if the conditioned air ain't doing it.

Sounds like we had a 744 get incredibly damaged trying to land in ICN last week- severe hail and turbulence damage.

6311 has subsequently been pulled from the desert, as this one is done.

717. But probably long time 88. Gets stuffy in the back even if it's cool outside.

That's a 747, but I can't blame you for not knowing the difference. Anything above or below a 737 isn't covered in your scope at any level or ratio, so they're all 190s. :D
