So a DGS employee can bump a Delta employee?

I was not aware that DGS employees got S2's but if they do, I guess so. Best check with the CPO or someone who knows the DGS non-rev rules.

Here is another for my Delta friends.

I don't like the double breasted jacket
I feel like sub commander.
But I wear it (but not the hat)
And hope I don't see Chief pilot.

Morgado, Coons, and Powell
Didn't listen to us.
So they resign and back to the line
They join Slick Willy and Captain Pus.

I volunteer for SPC, pero DALPA say no
We don't need you in our side.
OK fine, I think in my head,
One day I cross picket line.

At Southernjets we say Dixie and Sugar,
We sneer at Army guy.
We are Navy & Air Force though,
not your pie in the sky.
I can not tell a lie.
Give me a pastrami on rye.
I poke you in the eye.
Same-day, nonstop service to Hartsfield-Jackson--Sharpton airport.

Holy hell, are you serious? That was horrible!!! Stick to your day job!!!

Thanks. :)

SkyWest guy. They are in Denver and have great shirts. I tried them when they were new about 6 years ago and hated their shirts. I even bad mouthed them just a little. A few months ago Elbeco stopped making the shirts I've worn for over 15 years so I tried this place again. The new generation shirts are AWESOME! They don't fit anything like the typical pilot shirts we are all used to so it might take some time getting the right fit and fabric you like, but they offer free returns and shipping so it just takes time.

I love the fitted Tropo fabric shirt. Easily the most comfortable best fitting pilot shirt I've ever owned.

The part where he already plans to scab was odd also.

I couldn't S2 on DCI so I doubt they can do the same on mainline.

He is a troll. Some idiot with the exact same username trolled the Delta forums about a year ago and was deleted/banned/??? and now he's back with the same/similar name. Can't the mods just ban him again?

A DGS employee traveling with an S2 might be a manager.

Timbo, yes DGS employees get the same non rev privileges as regular employees based on their date of hire at DGS. It's about the only benefit I do get.

Active DGS (NSLI) has pass privileges that are virtually identical to an active DL pilot, including access to the jumpseat. Other DGS folks get the same as regular main line DL folks, unless something has changed in the last few months. 😀

Nevermind, I got DCI and DGS confused.
